I don't think crate training is an option at this point due to her not being able to potty. She has had trouble sleeping through the night since I got her. I am at my wits end.

Bathroom is fine. Make sure the toilet lid is closed and that nothing is within reach to chew or eat.
Crate training is not advisable for small dogs who do not have potty access for 8 hours. I highly recommend piddle pad training her. Disposable piddle pads are often a chewing hazard for pups who are not supervised during training. Washables usually solve the chewing problem.
