Are there any gall insects that target the Fouquieria family?

No, any gall insects that would not target the Fouquieria family.

Insect galls are abnormal growths on plants or trees, caused by insects as a result of their feeding or egg-laying activities.
The growth of galls starts with physical damage done to the plant as larvae eat, or by chemicals released from the insect's saliva.
The plant reacts by increasing its production of certain hormones, and the result is localized growth consisting of either an increase in the size or number of cells.
The end result is an abnormal structure known as a gall.
when larvae develop inside these galls they eat the gall's tissue

are there any herbivores that eat Fouquieria?

No, any herbivores that would not eat Fouquieria

An herbivore is an animal or insect that only eats vegetation, such as grasses, fruits, leaves, vegetables, roots and bulbs.
Herbivores only eat things that need photosynthesis to live.
Some parasitic plants that feed off of other plants are also considered herbivores
