If it is urgent you get home, take the refund, book one of the several AA flights that are showing space today for $400, and consider it a lesson learned the hard way. I always have a backup when flying Spirit - like a later Southwest flight that I can change with no charge - and continue to just push that flight to match my next Spirit itinerary.
According to some reports. they will put you on another airline in case of a mechanical issue.
