Puppies learn not to bite when you teach them.
The first thing this puppy would be learning at my house would be who is in charge. NOT HER. She would drag a line in the house when she is loose so I could control her. She would not be allowed to disrespect the other humans in the house, including the children, and children would not be allowed to "dis" the dog either. Each must learn limits and proper behavior.
This puppy would be on a rank reduction living schedule until further notice if she were mine:

Hold the muzzle and the collar right up behind the ears at the same time. If this is done properly, you can control a LARGE dog with one hand. So when she goes ballistic, restrain her head, look her in the eye, and say in a very low and growly tone, NO BITE. A normal puppy will look away, put it's ears back, lick out it's tongue, and in general demonstrate to you in dog talk that they understand you are the boss. Anytime you have to give this sort of correction, it should be followed by a 10 minute time out in the crate so that she can simmer down and lose some of her excitement. Be matter of fact about putting her in the crate, and also about letting her out. No making up. The alpha is entitled to demand a certain level of behavior from subordinates who live in the house.
I do not practice nor recommend alpha rolling.
Teach her bite inhibition and the leave it command using these methods:

Gently lay the puppy on her side and hold her there with one hand on her neck/scruff, and one hand on her flank, with her back toward you. Ignore struggles. Just hold her firmly but gently. No eye contact. As she begins to relax, start to massage and rub her with your hands, while you verbally soothe her. If she begins to struggle again, get quiet, and hold firmly but gently until she relaxes again. Work until she is very relaxed, and you can massage and knead and rub all over her. Back. Head. Chest. Legs. Once she is completely relaxed, inspect mouth, ears, feet, touch each toenail, and check under the tail.
Then turn her over and do the other side. This exercise will generally take 15 to 20 minutes to complete. DO NOT begin it if for ANY reason you won't be able to complete it.
You should do this at least once per week, and twice a week is better. W ith toy breeds, you can do it with them in your lap, and practice grooming at the same time.
I recommend you seek out training class with this puppy immediately. She is smart with a high activity level. If she is properly managed from now on, she will make a superb companion dog.
If not, she will be a problem. Most problem dogs are the smart ones who just were not trained, socialized, and managed properly.
Good luck with her, puppyhood is not a real fun time with some dogs, but if you work hard, it will surely be worth it!
