I permed my hair for the first time at home and then used a conditioner. I know you are supposed to wash it, but I thought conditioner? I was wrong. My hair immediately changed to straight in the water and when it dried, my hair was a total fuzz ball.

As a 35 year retired hairstyling veteran I can tell you with certainty that it's not the conditioner that made your hair fuzzy/frizzy; it's because you left the perm solution on too long and/or didn't wrap your hair on the perm rods correctly.
And the reason your hair went straight is because you're not supposed to wet, shampoo or condition your hair for at least 24 hours after a perm and better yet not for 48 hours.
You're only solution at this point is to not perm again and to make the damged hair look more smooth through trims, conditioning and styling products.
