Just tried to do it through the IRS website and it wouldn't let me do it. Tried it through legal zoom and it said I had to fax in a s4 form. I'm beginning to think it is just easier to open an llc.

Did you ever take advise from a tax professional?

Or just muddling along trying to do your business with replies off a forum?

Please consider the first option quickly.

Fiction. EIN's are limited to ONE per legal entity. You are ONE legal entity as an individual. If you have an LLC or a corporation, that creates a SEPARATE legal entity.

And, just because you LIVE in California, it does not mean you must open your LLC there. But check out the actual fees, I do not believe that ANY states charges $1,300 per year for an LLC. That might be the price charged by an attorney, or some sort of service that sets them up and maintains them, but the state fees should be FAR cheaper.
