It says it does need to be and “contains milk”. (non milkfat solids) also has lemon and lime juice concentrates. if it does need to be in the fridge, do you think it’s bad already or can i stick it in there now and be fine?

Yes, Sour mix has to be refrigerated. No, it is not likely bad yet, although the time it has been out will shorten it’s refrigerated shelf life a bit. The acids in there give it a longer shelf life when opened, but will go bad before long, and it isn’t something you use a lot of because a little goes a long way. It will still be good, but if ever in doubt, taste it. You will always be able to taste when fruit juice goes bad.
you may desire to continuously verify the label on the container for “Refrigerate After beginning”. I artwork in food service and we continuously say, “If uncertain, Throw it OUT!” do not take possibilities with your wellness. Take Care.
