I'm having trouble making sense of this sentence. From what I've looked up, I
think it's probably either "meme" talk, a dialect joke, or some combination of
the two. Here's the full sentence:

バカがガードがばがばになっからなマジで。

This is from a manga. Two highschool girls are talking, and one of them bought
a love potion from the internet. Her friend is doubtful of its effectiveness,
but she says "no, no, it seriously works", mentioning that she'd even tested
it on girls. She describes its effectiveness as バカ効き a few times throughout
the manga so far because it ends up having unexpectedly erotic results.

If I'm breaking the sentence apart correctly, she's describing マジで; in other
words, she's talking about how マジ the effectiveness of the love potion is. If
that's correct, the description is バカがガードがばがばになっから.

がばがば could mean "oversized", "gag", or "baggy (like clothing)" according to
Google. I assume ガード is just "guard", like the kind a person might let down if
under the effects of a love potion, though that doesn't seem to make sense
here. For なっから I found a meaning on fukapedia that says it's 深谷地方の方言 and is
equivalent to とても or たいへん... but that again doesn't seem to fit properly.

I'd really appreciate any help with the word definitions themselves, or a hint
as to how I might be breaking it down improperly. Thanks in advance.

question
slang manga definitions
ガードがばがばになっから meaning
* **バカが** : "You fool!" 
    * **が** : not a subject marker but a vocative-like particle; see [this](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/a/72075/5010)
  * **ガード** : [noun] "guard" (in this context, refers to psychological defense or skepticism against the seducer)
  * **がばがば** : [onomatopoeic na-adj] describes how something is wide open, very loose or leaky
  * **に** : destination/target marker ("to")
  * **なっから** : colloquialism for なるから (forget the little-known dialect; なっから is slangy but common in standard Japanese) 
    * **なる** : "to become"
    * **から** : "you know"; "listen"; "mind you"; "I warned you" (see [this answer](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/a/58119/5010))
  * **な** : sentence-end particle
  * **マジで** : "seriously"; "really"

Note that the subject of the sentence is ガード rather than バカ. The very literal
translation is "You're silly, the (recipient's) defense will be extremely
loose, you know, seriously." The sentence effectively means anyone who takes
this potion will forget how to defend themselves.

**EDIT:** We also say すっか/すっから (するか/するから), やっか/やっから (やるか/やるから), みっか/みっから
(みるか/みるから), and less commonly くっか/くっから (くるか/くるから).
