The Fugitive Slave Act was the provision of the Compromise of 1850 that was designed to appeal to slave states. It allowed for the capture and return of fugitive slaves who had escaped to free states. This provision aimed to address the concerns of slave states by improving the enforcement of slave owners' property rights.
The Compromise of 1850 had several provisions. California entered the Union as a free state. There was still slavery in Washington, D.C. but no slave trade and Texas lost its claim to some of New Mexico. The most controversial part of the law was the Fugitive Slave Law which required northerners to return escaped slaves to their owners.
The Compromise of 1850 was the plan under which California entered the Union. In exchange for allowing another free state into the United States, the Fugitive Slave Act was passed, which ordered northern states to return escaped slaves to their masters in the south.
The event you are referring to is the Compromise of 1850, where California was admitted as a free state and the Fugitive Slave Law was enacted. This law required the return of escaped slaves to their owners, regardless of where they were caught in the United States.

A fugitive bond is really just like a normal bond. When one state has a warrant out for your arrest, that is entered into NCIC, and you are arrested in another state.....then the arresting state can post a bond for you, referred to as a fugitive bond. They basically give you a set number of days to head back to the State that issued the warrant and handle your business or they put you back in jail and revoke the 'fugitive bond'.
