I am not a breeder, but but stumbled across this thread this morning.

You have now had two accidents. Honestly, I think you need to do some soul searching about why you are breeding; and how well planned it is.

You said that the vet said Gidget could have a cyst. Did she happen to mention that an ultrasound might reveal this? Or is it all guess work? You also mentioned not having funds. Are you prepared for an emergency? What if she has a problem pregnancy and needs emergency surgery? I really hope you have thought this out. It sounds to me as if money is talking more than the health of your Gidget. You did mention the word profit. You mentioned that you want to breed her with Teddy...and how those plans are "up in smoke". If she has an emergency or dies due to this unplanned pregnancy, your plans will be up in smoke anyway. I would seriously do some deep soul searching about what is important here. Are you willing to gamble like this? The life of Gidget and perhaps a litter of puppies?
