I had to supplement my Roxy at that age because she was not tolerating weaning well. I gave her a goat milk based puppy formula.

For the other puppies- I also used it to soften the puppy kibble after I had ground the kibble into a powder to make a thick paste. Think slightly watery oatmeal.

I would contact the breeder myself to see if they will let you have mama and pups. I would stress how unsafe the environment is if her child is shaking the puppies. If money is that tight than she really can't afford the dogs- IMO.
You've been given great advice! Good Luck!
