Information provided is pretty sparse. Hard to help you considering.
What interfacse have what ip addresses and netmasks. What do the various devices have set as their default gateways?
What is this VLAN10? Another interface on pfSense? Where is is connected?
Is the Cisco switch layer 2 or layer 3? How is its VIP configured? Why should it be able to ping anything on 10.0.0.0/?
??

computer has ip address 10.0.0.100

If the switchport going to pfSense is in access mode you do not need to set a VLAN on pfSense. Just use the regular (untagged) interface (reX, emX, igbX, etc).
I still do not understand where VLAN10 on pfSense comes in with the 10.0.10.1 address.
You will have to configure the switch management interface on VLAN 10 for it to be able to ping anything.
