Jess, best advice i have ever heard on this forum.

when you rush into a bunch of animals you'll eventually run into a bunch of issues/problems that you've never considered and sometimes all at once.

i also think just because you received the snake with an RI doesnt necessarily mean that the breeder you purchased it from is shady and the animal is of lesser quality. sometimes the stress of shipping to another or across country is enough to cause RI in certain animals whether it be they are already immunocompromised or just sensitive. i do think you should have took the GTP to the vet before you started administering medication though...

are you able to properly quarantine all these new additions? you must have a massive house...
