You should use Django-PayPal app. It has views for IPN and PDT, stores transaction details in DB, does TX verification and it fires of a signal when when a successful transaction comes in to your webhook.
All you have to do is specify some URLs and settings. It'll even render that front end form for you using a Django form. It really is a bomb.
