Baleful Polymorph's duration is listed as permanent, therefore:

Magic section, Duration wrote:
Permanent: The energy remains as long as the effect does. This means the spell is vulnerable to dispel magic.

It's also affected by Remove Curse. As it is considered a Curse Affliction.

Baleful polymorph's duration is Permanent (meaning that the spell remains on the subject with no set expiration) and there is no text preventing dispel magic from working on it, so it can be dispelled.

Instantaneous (the spell does its work and goes away, leaving the subject changed and no longer magical) is the deal-breaker that you may have been looking out for.
