Legal Question in Medical Leave in Pennsylvania

Quitting job after FMLA

I have been on FMLA due to the adoption of our child in October. I have been using my accrued vacation and sick time during this time. My husband and I decided that I am going to stay home with the baby. Will I be required to pay back this time, and if so, how long do I have to return to work to avoid this.
