how can I install flux into my qubes ?

f.lux fixes this: it makes the color of your computer's display adapt to the time of day, warm at night and like sunlight during the day.

I know it needs to be installed in dom0 but what command do i need to type to also get the graphical interface where I can manually regulate the orange tone it gives?

redshift is too red , I would like to get the orange f.flux with the little window in the upper right corner where you can adjust the intensity.

The parameters for redshift are all very much so tunable to your preference, check out the documentation online.

Additionally, f.lux doesn't run on Linux iirc do it wouldn't work inside dom0, which is where it would have to be to dim the whole screen.

Apparently so. I believe it's closed source though? Either way redshift is effectively equivalent.
