Could you tell me the best way to attack this problem, what with my
apples already infested??

I think most home apple growers just use one of the home orchard sprays
that combine insecticide and fungicides. Once the worm is in the
apple, nothing is going to stop the damage.
If you live north, as I do, and your apples are still small, the ones
that are infested will surely drop. If some small apples are still not
damaged (this is where I am this year) you may be able to spray and save
what remains.
If you are farther south and the apples are nearly full size, some will
ripen and be edible. Just cut them in half with a knife and then remove
the damaged parts before eating.
If you want to grow apples without spraying, well, good luck. There
aren't very many places where disease and insect damage is so light that
growing without spraying is easily achieved.
