Went through the same thing this past summer. Here's what I bought:
Pump: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000X07GMW/
Hoses: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UH2SZLC/
5 gallon bucket from Home Depot
Vinegar from Costco: https://www.costcobusinessdelivery.com/Four-Monks-Distilled-White-Vinegar%2C-1-Gallon%2C-2-ct.product.11073510.html - came in a 2-pack in store. I think I ended up using both. Didn't dilute with anything.
I'm guessing you're probably watching some of the same videos that I did. Instructions were pretty easy to follow. Hardest part for me was nailing down the gear I had to buy to make my own kit. Everything mentioned above did the trick though. Hope that helps!
I got the idea for the rotating keg cleaner from Will Troyer’s video.

Brass Impact Sprinkler, the previous owner of my house left some of these, I replaced them with an in ground sprinkler system. Used parts from them for both the keg cleaner and the rotating sparge arm.
If you need more details let me know.
You can certainly do it on the same day, but here's what I tend to do. As I drink the bottle, it gets a cursory rinse (enough to keep fruit flies at bay) and ends up in a fastrack. When I have a few fastracks full of dirties, I fire up the washer, do a cycle of PBW, then a cycle of fresh water for the rinse. The bottles stay in the racks, sparkling clean but not sanitized, stacked up to dry (they can stack 5 high/120 bottles and still be pretty stable). When I get 6 or 8 full clean racks and am ready to bottle, I fire up the washer with sanitizer. They get about 30 seconds each on the with Saniclean(the low foam version of Starsan), then stacked back up to drip dry while I get everything else prepped.
When everything is good and ready to go, I set a rack into a full size steam table pan (local restaurant supply stores have the 2" tall pans for about $10), invert the whole thing and you have 24 clean and sanitized bottles, contained in a ready made drip tray and ready to go. Each bottle doesn't leave its place in the rack from the time it's first emptied, through the cleaning/storage/sanitizing cycle until it's just about to be bottled. I'm not sure of pump pressures, but the pump that comes with the Marks Keg Washer runs around 500 GPH and was enough to produce about a 4' head on all 24 nozzles. I purchased this one after using that for a few months, this produces enough pressure to soak my ceiling with all 24 nozzles: Superior Pump 91025
