When I try to start the device normally it gets stuck on the loading screen with the animation.

I go into that bootloader mode and try to restore it to wipe/restore it to factory settings but I get this: http://puu.sh/62xdx.jpeg

I must have f**cked something up when trying to root the phone...no idea what I've done and I have no idea why wiping the data isn't working.

Any suggestions?

Could be the flash memory of the phone fail, or you just need to format the cache partition:
fastboot erase cache
then format it to make it usable: fastboot format cache

If that don't work, try to manually erase all the partitions and reflash factory image. Use this guide, follow step 5 to erase the partitions, but use this driver and Nexus 5 image instead of the ones for the Nexus 4:
