You said she was spayed a month ago.. And she started this problem a month ago, right? I think that is your answer. She may not be totally healed yet . Do you have an expen? You may have to confine her to an ex pen with potty paDS inside at ALL times when you cannot give her 100% attention. Still watch her and when she DOES go on the pads PRAISE THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS OUT OF HER! You can put a shower curtain under the expen in case of any accidents. Put her bed and some toys and her food in one corner and one or two pads in the opposite corner. As she starts getting consistant again on using the pads, remove one pad. She will learn. I personally think if my dog was pottying in the house it is not his/her fault. IT IS MINE!! Letting them have free reign of the house before they are trained is just asking for failure. I promise you, if you start over at square one and be CONSISTANT, you will be rewarded and be able to keep the baby you love. Good luck

PS at walmart you can get some spray to spray on the pads that attract the dog to it to go potty there
