My house is on fire, should I call 911?

Its just a little fire, I accidentally knocked over a candle in my room and my desk caught on fire and its spreading. I am still watching the fire right now and im safe, but I don't know if I should call 911 or if it will go out by itself. I already tried blowing on it but that didn't really help.

Update:

So Far all are good answers

Im still watching the fire, and now it spead to my bed and is getting closer to me.

Hopefully it will go out before it reaches me.

Update 2:

Im gonna wait to call 911.

I am safe and not hurt yet

    No, don't call 911! Chill- this stuff happens all the time! Do you have marshmallows, crackers, and chocolate? If so, perfect! Go make some s'mores- it is the perfect opportunity. Why don't you roast some chicken, or stir fry your veggies? Try an African fire dance- they are supposed to be really cool! As long as you don't burn yourself, you got nothing to worry about!

    Pour water over it. If it is a big fire, get off the computer and go outside and call 911.

    If in doubt, get out.

    If you are confident, go ahead and fight the fire yourself. If there's no oil, gasoline, or electricity, just dump water on it.

    Your best bet is to use your body to put out the fire.

    no. Call your local doctor's office and see how you can resolve the issue. 911 is for EMERGENCIES.
