Default diarrhea and vomiting

hello, I just recently purchased Meeko about a week ago and the breeder gave her a clean bill of health. Just to be on the safe side, I brought her to the vet Saturday morning along with a stool sample. The vet also said that she seemed healthy with no parasites or congenital defects. Then, she gave me a sample of Heartguard and Frontline to test out. I brought Meeko home and gave her the Heartguard and later on that night, she started getting the poops which lasted about 3 days. I assumed that it was from the Heartguard medication and her stool just recently began getting harder however, its not as hard as it had been before Heartguard. She's kept her appetite and she seems well hydrated. When i took her for a walk this morning, it looked as if there was a bit of blood in her stool but when she poo'd again later, it looked normal. i gave her a couple pieces of Natural Choice treats and she threw it up a little later. I'm a first time dog owner and I'm not sure if i'm just overreacting but any suggestions?
