And my interviewer grilled me about them. Did I screw up my chances?

If the interviewer called you out then yeah, I wouldn't hold my breath. Likely ding for lack of attention to detail

Fix errors and keep looking

Yup sadly I sent it out to a bunch of other places too. Do I alert them to it and send a revised resume?

You should definitely just contact them and say there was a minor error and you wanted to update your resume.

Don't do anything until you get an interview. Then just send through an updated resume.
