Freshie In Disguise

I broke down and bought a walmart betta. She's exceptionally beautiful. She's usually a bright, iridescent blue but changes to green and indigo depending on the lighting/angle she's at, and she has some magenta on her fins. Her finnage is absolutely flawless, as are her scales. She would make a fantastic breeder... Aside from the fact that she is bloated. When I bought her, I thought she was just sturdy, but now (in QT) she is looking rounder and rounder towards the front. I am finding lots of pictures and info saying whether the fish HAS bloat, but absolutely nothing saying how to treat it.
This is only the second ill fish I have ever had, so I don't have a clue what to do for her... At all. I am doing: Daily 50% PWC, mild salt treatment, reduced food (sinking granules), and increased heat (82 day, 80 night).
Should I feed her some peas or something? Medications?
