First check to see if your laptop qualifies for this Battery Recall program:

I highly recommend having Apple replace the battery for you. How long this will take will depend on a lot of factors such as your region and whether the laptop will be mailed to Apple for the repair (by you or by an Apple Store or an AASP), or whether the AASP performs the repair within their own shop. Due to COVID sometimes parts take longer to arrive or become available and sometimes repairs take a bit longer as techs are overwhelmed right now. There is absolutely no way anyone can be sure since these things change at a moments notice. During non-COVID times a tech could give you a reasonably accurate estimation based on previous experience.
