This exact same thing happened to me when I brought Ellie home. The doctor gave her some Albon for the coccidia, and I would syringe her 2 tsp of pedialyte every hour. After a day or so of doing this, she seemed to get better. The vet can also give them a vitamin B12 shot which should increase the energy level and make them hungry. I would contact the breeder and explain everything to see if they would let you return the puppy for a new one, or pay some of the medical bills. I agree that the puppy should have never left until it was at least 2 lbs.
