Questions about Deco X20 network
Right now I have Rogers Ignite service 500mb/20mb (XB6) in bridge mode > Connected to Main Deco X20 with the other pod connected to the mesh wirelessly. I have a 4 port unmanaged switch connected to the Main Deco for other hardware devices like my Smart TV, and PS4. The Deco only has 2 ports on the back so not sure how I can implement FW to my network.
I would like to add the FW Blue + device to this for even better parental controls and device management and monitoring.

If a computer on the network which uses a public VPN client, can the FW app view traffic still coming from that MAC/device on my home network while its connected to VPN? If not, can I see the exact VPN address and block the URL or ports for that computer to prevent use of ANY VPN client software?

I do know the X60 does not work well with Firewalla (see https://firewalla.com/compatibility), so there is a possibility, if the X20 is like the X60, it may not work. If that's the case, the best unit to have is the purple or the gold in router mode.
As of the second question, firewalla doesn't see through VPN run-ing on the client, but if you use firewalla vpn client feature, then firewalla will be able to see traffic before it goes into the vpn tunnel.
