I had my mouth washed out with soap for swearing... I do not remember how old I was or exactly how many times, but they are not postive memories from my childhood. I advise you to refrain from using this method. Give her timeouts and explain calmly why she should not spit. Is it possible she is crying out for your attention? Are you thinking about all the hundreds of things on your 'to do' list when playing with her or giving her your attention?
Like Rose and Angela, I really recommend you read Tolle. And, I send you a huge hug.
