Royal Canine for Yorkies is a great choice and I've used this in the past.
As for getting your little guy so young that is another issue. Others will be along shortly to argue he should stay with his momma until much older but if you are given no other choice I guess you just need to run with it and deal the best you can. I do question the age of just 6 weeks and believe there might be laws in Florida regarding the age of a puppy sale. After a very quick look it seems Florida laws state a minimum of 8 weeks of age.

I've never dealt with such a young puppy since mine were all a form of rescue the youngest being about 10 weeks old about right at 2 lbs. Maybe you can get advice from Gemy or another member more experienced with the needs of a 6 weeks old puppy.
As for your husband's friend, might I suggest offering a spay & neuter for their pets as a thank you gift for the new puppy. It sounds as though this breeding might have been an accident and another will be right around the corner if they are left unaltered
Good luck with you new baby. Check back with questions and of course share pictures
