I am so sorry to hear about your Yorkie..please talk with your vet and do a search on the net for help with your home.
As a rule, once they have Parvo they are immune..so your Yorkie may not have a problem..but please consult the vet. If you have other dogs you must make sure their vaccines are up to date...and do not bring any new pets for at least 3 months, maybe longer..it used to be advised to wait 6 months.

You need to clean any hard surface flooring with chlrox...bleach anything the dog played with, toys, wash bedding..shampoo the carpets with stream cleaner.
I would think the yard is okay since it is cold in WVA now..but plwase ask the vet.
Best wishes to you.
