I would figure out what kind of bulbs you are using (according to your ballast its either T8 or T12) .. Then what I would do is simply look for a 2 lamp (T8/T12) ballast and whichever you feel comfortable buying; would buy ..
However that being said, if you don't even know which ballast to buy, I would recommend just buying a whole new unit (which is literally the same price as a ballast). If you mess up with the wiring, it won't end well.

Growing herbs near a window is not a great idea because of drafts and lack of light.
I would suggest investing in a fixture that holds 2 t12 flourescent bulbs. They come in 3, 4, 5 and 6 ft sizes. Some aluminum chain and hooks are also helpful. At Lowes the bulbs cost about $8 for 2 t12s and the fixture is about the same. You don't need to bother with the expensive specialty lights.
