What if the body shop doesn't have a baking booth?
I just found out the place that's supposed to do my kit doesn't have one. Should I be concerned?

yeah pretty sure baking is a usual step in most painting. i had to get my eyelids baked even before primer was put on to get all the oils and crap out.

Ignorance is bliss.
A baking booth has zero to with anything aside from getting a car in and out. It's like mass production. It allows the shop to run more cars through the shop. The only thing baking does is to cure the paint faster. It doesn't clean oils out, it doesn't make the booth any cleaner, it doesn't increase the car's horsepower, and it doesn't mix you a drink. If the shop puts out good work let them do your car. You're putting way too much worry into it.

Sounds like you paid for something you probably shouldn't have. Most particles can be wetsanded and buffed out, which is something every good shop does.

Im going through hell right now and part of it very well could be because the car WAS baked. I personally prefer to have my paint cure without baking.
