FYI the vaccine only prevents a few strains of HPV.

Ladies & Gents,

How many of you have taken the HPV vaccination? I am going to ask my doctor for it. It seems to me that for safety, we should all get vaccinated. That is one thing that condoms cannot protect against. Kissing or even skin to skin contact can transmit HPV. Any comments?

"The vaccines provide little benefit to women having already been infected with HPV types 16 and 18, which includes most sexually active females. For this reason, the vaccine is recommended primarily for those women not yet having been exposed to HPV during sex."

Also, benefits and efficacy for men of HPV vaccine has not yet been established.

Best bet: talk with your doctor.

So as others have said, talk to your doctor first before doing anything; it may be of no use to you at this point.
