It looks like u blew a seal, which arn't too expensive. Getting it fixed at a shop is usually pretty cheap. If you are familar with rebuilding shocks you could do it yourself.

Lose weight.

And get new seals. I wouldn't change my own shock seals though, I have no idea how, might have to send it in? I'm sure others will know.

what marshal said

Buy new seals and some 7 wt shock fluid from a moto store

These are pretty easy to rebuild
Also buy that schrader valve stuff like we first talked about

Most shops will not rebuild Fox shocks.

So my front Fox shock is leaking oil as well. It doesn't look like Squatch's since the shock is vertical and the oil has mostly stayed in the fork, but now it's starting to squeak too. How much damage am I doing if I keep riding it like this? Should I get it fixed right away?

Come on guys, it's so simple. I think you need a refresher course. It's all ball bearings nowadays.
