I'm so sorry you're going through this. We got our Tatum from the Rascoes 8 years ago (don't think they were using the fancypups name at the time but I'm not sure) and Jimmie was very nice and helpful. I was impressed by their clean setup but have to admit I was naive at that time about puppymills and brokers. Once I found out they were brokers I didn't recommend them to others. Tatum has not had a single health issue and is a very nice "specimen" of what a Yorkie should look and act like but most of all we love her to pieces. I just don't think that a broker, not raising the parents themselves, can promise what the pups will be like. I got lucky. It seems you did not. I hate to say it but I think you should move on unless you're prepared to deal with the vet expenses and potential heartache (even more than you're feeling now). I know, easier said than done. I'll have to go back and find your other posts about Gracie as I don't know what's happened with her so far. Tatum was about 10 weeks old and barely a pound in weight when we got her and we didn't have any issues with that. Knowing what I know now I know that we were very lucky in all aspects with her. Good luck in your decision.
