I don't understand why you have two federal returns. You only need one. That one should have accurate numbers.
Once you have prepared a correct federal return with all of the correct numbers you should then prepare a part-year California return. You will do this by telling TurboTax that your corporation was only in California for a month. You will manually adjust the income and expenses in California so that they match what was actually earned there.
After the California return is prepared you will prepare the Virginia return. Both state returns will use the numbers from the same federal return. You are going to be required to pay taxes on everything that you earned for the whole year in Virginia. But you will receive credit for the taxes that you paid to California on the Virginia return.
You will do this using one federal return in TurboTax.
