All I had on hand to use is apple cider vinegar so I put some in her water, is that okay for now or should I still pick up some medication? Her poop returned to normal and she seemed fine so I waited a couple days and put her back in with the flock...

Apple Cider Vinegar will not treat worms.

I can only find safeguard for horses.. would I be able to use that if I used a pea-sized amount? I've checked all the stores near me and that's all they have...

Yes, you can use Safeguard paste, dose is the same as for the liquid. It's not a "pea sized" dose, it's by weight of the bird.

To treat most worms that poultry can have except for Tapeworm - Safeguard dose is 0.23ml per pound of weight given orally once a day for 5 days in a row.
---OR---
Valbazen dose is 0.08ml per pound of weight given orally once, then repeated in 10 days.
