I realized that buying through Amazon is cheaper here in CA than getting my education discount on Apple's website. But is there a way to get both, the education and Amazon's sales tax exemption?

Not that I'm aware of. They do discount the Macs to some extent. That plus the savings from tax (I know, I know, if you choose not to pay it on your own), it's still cheaper. If you include the free iPod, then Apple is cheaper.
 
Right now you can get the base 13''MBP and 8GB iPod Touch on Amazon for $1199 shipped in case you did not know.
