All the keys and even the spacer will pop off a key board (small screw driver to lift up) and push down to reinstall.
Under the keys there pressure points (switches) that you might be able to clean with alcohol on a swab. If there is a membrane you might need to take off several adjoining keys to get to the electrical contacts.
You can't break it if it's already broke! ;)

Replace it.

Funny thing is I was starting to have a ton of issues with my old logitech keyboard and mouse. So I decided time for a new one. well the new mouse lasted a total of 3 days before it took a shit. Hard to get used to a new keyboard. I think this set is going back and I am going to stay away from logitech for a bit.

I have a spare keyboard if you need one.  It is a plain jane model from a Dell.  It is black and about as small of a footprint as it can be with all the keys one needs.  This style has been used in offices and millions have been produced, I'm sure.  It has the typical USB plug interface.  We buy our computers from our local school when they upgrade and get good deals on this equipment. 

I'm not sure you'd even get it if I was to try to mail it to you, remembering reading about some of your packages being pilfered down there in the mail...

Unless you're on a laptop...then never mind...sorry to hear about your troubles.
