Just research and give as few as possible.
The giardia vaccine is not one that should be given in most cases.

I'd let her poor little body rest for awhile.
Try to talk your vet until waiting til 6 months to give rabies if possible.
You could just do one more set (DHPP) at about 19 weeks and then titer a few weeks later to see her antibody levels.
I agree with this option (I did a LOT of research on vaccs) and actually prefer to give them myself (a nursing student I know what I'm doing) and under the supervision of my vet. Wow poor Bella has had a LOT of vaccs and some unnecessary meds. Just as in humans, antibiotics should NOT be given on a regular basis or just because one ... THINKS that an infection will happen/has happened.

yes it is normal for her to act a little lethargic it should only last for one day maybe one and 1/2 days ... no more than 2 days thou. And she might be sore depending on where her shots were given (in the muscle versus just under the skin).
