Paul, I would keep your concerns separated. I am assuming that the sidekiq worker uses some rails activerecord model to send some information to facebook. I would set a flag on that model to true when the facebook requests are completed successfully.

Then you can have a setTimeout on in js to poll for that change in the db... or for faster, more automatic responses you can look into using web sockets. I have used a library called Pusher in the past. It's pretty easy to integrate with rails and makes for a very snappy UI.
