Make sure your tie rods are not bent, there is no point in doing an alignment with damaged parts. Also I'd recommend Sable Chase or Miami Chassis for an alignment, but there are other good places. Sorry about what happened.

I think one or more or your front suspension parts are bent. Pretty easy to change, and definitely needs an alignment afterwards. You need to put it in the air, and look at what's damaged.
