Assuming you have anti-virus software installed, updated and running on your computer, simply run a scan of the device.

If you want to ensure you don't, use a product like Objectwipe to completely wipe your usb flash key, and reformat it.

Be aware, access to a drive which is infected, can result in infecting other drives.
