I have been through hair dye hell! I'm originally a dark brunette and when I was back in highschool I let someone dye my hair blonde. It came out BRIGHT orange and stayed that way until it faded. Last year I let a professional change my hair blonde and it came out really nice.
I'd like to share with you some advice I got from my professional. The reason why your hair turned out to be a darker color is because your hair was porous from the highlights and bleaching. This absorbs the colors, making it darker than normal. You will need to buy a clarifying shampoo which will get rid of olders colors and access build up. This will fade the color. And trust me... it will fade!
You will only be damaging your hair more if you were to dye it now. Give it at least three weeks. Harsh, yes. But you really want to keep your hair healthy.

Oh, I know how you feel.
I've had so many issues with coloring/highlighting my hair, I've lost count now.
First of all, don't let it grow out. Hah, you'll freak out about it foreverrrrr. Plus, it'll probably take over a year to grow out.
Go to a professional salon -- try & see if you have a friend who goes to one to get their hair colored or highlighted & has had good results in the past. Yes, those cost way more than normal salons, but it's better than having your hair screwed up again. Ask them what they would suggest for you to do. Whatever you do, DO NOT strip your hair. It dries out your hair way too much. If you go to the salon, like I suggested, it depends what color your hair is. When you go, DO NOT LET THEM DYE YOUR HAIR! Just tell them to highlight (foils) & they'll bring out a color chart & pick your colors. I would pick two -- pick a color very close to your natural color & pick a color a shade darker. That's what I did, & it looks way better than it did the first time. Hah, mine was dyed RED. Yeah, I almost cried. Haha, anyways, if they freak out about the cost, just simply tell them you can pay them back. You can do chores around the house, babysit, have a yardsale, take some money out of your account at the bank if you have one, etc.
Good luck!

This is going to sound odd, but it worked for me.
*WARNING*- This will dry your hair out, but it is fixable.
You take Dawn dish soap and apply it to your dry hair coating all of it. Take a shower cap and put it on your head. Let it sit for around 35-40 minutes.
*Optinal*- may use blow dryer to speed up process.
Rinse all of the soap out then use conditioner.

i have no idea what to tell you. you can wash your hair alot and it will fade.
but i recomend never using at home highlighting kits.
but at home dye is fine, except for blonde.
if you want blonde put in your hair ALWAYS go to a salon, because it will most likely turn orange, like your hair did.
i would seriosly consider dying your hair a light brown or something for now. even though your parents won't let you i would still try to beg them.
i am so sorry this happened and i feel your pain.
hope this helped.
