Hi, you have a lot going on. If you can do it, I recommend getting an in home visit from a trainer. He/ she can observe what triggers the behavior. And show you what to do.
Here are a few things that may help.
First get your dog off your bed and on the floor.
I would not spray water on a dog who was acting aggressive.
Touch is usually needed to break confrontational aggression. Stomp, clap, toss a rolled up ball of socks at the charging dog, while saying ENOUGH, or NO, No, No!
If the aggressive dog has the other dog down or is biting, pull them apart by the back legs. If you are not afraid of getting bit and can move very fast, you can grab the biting dog by the scruff of the neck and lift them straight up in the air. (We are talking about small Yorkies here, not a big Pitty or Rottie).
Time outs may help.
Start practicing Nothing in life is free ( you can google it).
Lastly you can muzzle your aggressive dog until you get the problem solved.
AGAIN I strongly suggest hiring an in home trainer. On line instructions, Books, videos are not the same as a hands on trainer.
