Will my tomato plant come back--at least with new leaf growth?

I had bugs on my tomato plants and tried to water, soap, oil, cayene mixture recommended by someone on here. My leaves got brown within the hour and I was wondering if my plant is going to die or will it come back--at least with new growth? I had a tomato on the plant before spraying it with the mixture.

As well as pulling off any brown leaves, rinse the plants very well.

I use 7 dust for insect control. It works on everything from japanese beetles to fleas - and it's very safe for people, pets, and most wildlife. My bird feeder is in the middle of my rose garden and it's the only thing I know that will kill the japanese beetles yet is safe for the birds. But I do keep it away from my pond. If you follow the directions, it's completely safe.
Reply:Most likely the leaves got scourge by the combination of mixture. Get rid of the leaves and wait for a couple of days to see if new leaves appear at the tip. If not, then plant new one.
Reply:Not sure what kind of bugs you had; but if they were stinkbugs; you probably just gave them a snack.

Get some mater spray.
Reply:Man why are so many people afraid of pesticides. Used correctly they will not harm you.I think you may have killed your plant. If not it will be stunted to the point where it's going to be virtually impossible to get tomatoes from it. Start over with a new plant and if you get bugs then find out what they are and use a product that will get rid of them. Your agriculture agent in the area can help and there are many places on the Internet to help you identify the problem. You still have lot's of warm weather left to grow in so give it another shot.
