Answer
Go to a camping supply store and have them cut you poles to measure. You might also try an army surplus store for tent poles. I am guessing you need the bendy-flexy ones.
A Google search brought this up:
Until fall 2004, Quest USA tents were manufactured exclusively by NorthPole and sold through a number of retailers. These original Quest tents are discontinued and no longer in production. No parts or customer service are available for Quest tents made prior to 2004.
In the fall of 2004, the Quest brand and logo were sold to Dickâs Sporting Goods. Quest tents produced since 2004 are made by several different tent manufacturers for Dickâs Sporting Goods.
Hope you are able to source the poles you need at the website below.

Question about toxic outdoor tents from China?
Q. Looking into getting a polyester/urethane tent. Think it has been treated with fire retardant.
Worried about the adverse health effects of these materials when they off gas if they do at all, esp. fire retardant, since may be sleeping in the tent for 3 months.
The tent has adequate ventilation, top, sides, and front, maybe one window in the back....
but i heard fire retardant is toxic, not sure what kind....but will it off gas in the hot summer days??
Should i be worried about this, or is it ok to sleep in such a tent made from these chemicals?

Answer
Again product liability is born by the manufacturer if anything I would worry about Japanese imports at this time due to radiation. However everything shipped here to the USA goes through fairly good inspections to prevent that. Since most camping goods are manufactured in China and Pakistan these days anyway an important concern would be product support more than anything else. Say you have a busted pole how long would it take the rep to resupply you with one.
Again, since this is now a repeated question, should you be worried about exposure to toxic chemicals? no as these are regulated by the feds as to what can be used on products that people use. Also again as I stated before your choices are limited since All tent makers either use retardant chemicals and or fire resistant materials And as I stated already I am sure that the lawyers have already researched their liability in such matters. Get over your hypochondria and get the best tent you can afford.
