Is this bad when the Krausen comes out of the blowoff tube and into the sanitizer?

Do I need to replace the sanitizer? Maybe after the Krausen eases off?

Not bad, that is what blow off tubes are for.
Since your catch vessel is already full, I would dump it, put about 1 1/2 inches of fresh sanitizer in that bottle and let her rip. I put my catch vessel (in my case a margarine tub) in a pot in case it over flows. You only need enough sanitizer to keep the end of the blow off tube submerged.
 
my last batch blew the lid off 3 times and the blow off bottle was super yeasty i have never had an issue.
