It takes about a week for the hormones to get into your system. If you put the patch on on a Monday and then had sex the next Tuesday, I'd say you were fine. I wouldn't do anything before then, just to be on the safe side.

Forgot to take your pills so you stopped and got your period then you started a new pack at the time you were supposed to and had unprotected sex 2 weeks later and have spotting but its not a period?

The spotting may be due to missing several pills or pregnancy. When you had sex after starting the new pack, because you missed several pills you were not protected against pregnancy. See your DR for a quantitative beta hcg pregnancy blood test. You'll need to ask specifically for this test from your DR or alternatively buy a home pregnancy test.
