I'm sorry you're in this predicament. STDs have always been on my list of absolute no-nos, but not everyone shares that. Do not shag when she's broken out, and always use a condom and medication when she's not. A decent vaccine is still maybe 3-5 years out, but the most she can do now is take drugs that effect the severity and duration of outbreaks. I would strongly suggest that she be very serious about eating healthy and exercising regularly, as it can assist the immune system.
As for your decision? All I can really do is tell you what I'd do and why, but you're not me, so take it with a grain of salt. I would at the very least wait until her divorce is final, and I'd still probably not get back with her. While I know all about the 'one that got away' syndrome, I cannot in good faith start in and 1) run the risk of being a rebound, 2) run the risk of heading the same direction that it took last time, and 3) run the risk of getting herpes. That herpes is nothing to sneeze at.
Best of luck.
