Sounds like she's taking the Pack Leader role. As soon as you let a dog on your bed it confuses them into thinking they are the pack leader. The bed and most comfortable spot is always reserved for the highest in the pack. Maybe get a doggie bed or an old blanket and let her sleep on the floor NEXT to your bed. This will re-establish yours and your husbands role as the Pack Leader.

Also, the Pack Leader's job is to protect the pack and correct the pack. Hence the biting. She thinks she's correcting you for something. Check out Cesar Milan books - dog psychology. Worked for me!
