I would make sure that your baby is in a secure area like a x-pen. Then have a crate for her to sleep in, a pee pad, and food & water down all the time. My litter that is now 8 weeks old eat all day long. However, a new puppy will get stressed from a new area and not eat. Also, if they are over played with at this age they will forget to eat.
I rescued a little girl about 5 months ago and she was around 6 weeks old. The breeder had no common sense. Anyway, she didn't want to eat either. I took her into the vet and explained my concern. I also explained that she had some low blood sugar attacks too. They gave her a shot of vitamin B which made her extremely hungry. From that day on she was fine.
Check the gums often and give nutrical once a day. If the gums turn white or she is acting weird, give her some more nutrical. If you don't see an improvement within 15-20 minutes, rush her to the vet.
Good luck with your little one. I can't wait to see pictures.
