I would get a diagnosis on this before proceeding with shots because giving them with some medical conditions and be tricky and dangerous. When your pup seized, when is the last time it had eaten?
Second set of shots? She's too old to have had her first shots!

They should not start the shots until she is 9-10 weeks and finish at 16-18 weeks. She still has antibodies from nursing that block the effectiveness of vaccines if given too early. They will all have to be repeated.

This puppy was way too young to leave it's mother. Yorkies should stay with their mother until they are 12 weeks old. At her age, the risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) is great.
