Don’t let her eat poop! She’s too young to be away from her mother and litter mates, let alone be left unattended. You need to supervise her closely, and keep her away from other animals’ feces. I hope you’ve already taken her to the vet for a check up?

since it is still very young, get her used to having her teeth brushed with special dog toothpaste and toothbrushes. If she doesn’t like it, just try to mess with her mouth a lot so that she trusts you. This will help a lot. There are also special toys and treats that clean the teeth and freshen breath.

You need to pick up after her. You could give her a mint flavored dog treat, (I wouldn’t) and breath spray for pets, works but my dog hates it so much.

You need to make sure that youre dog doesnt eat anymore poop. Its definately not good for her. I know this sounds wierd, but when you have made sure that she is ok, try using a doggie toothbrush to brush her teeth. I used it for my dog when he needed it. Annother thing that you can try is when you buy dog treats, look for the special ones that say things about your dogs breath on them because certain ones can help stop the stink. Ususally Milkbone helps.

Keep her away from the poop
Brush her teeth if your can
feed her the special treats that help with breath problems
or give her bones that help with the teeth

First, clean up after your dog and cat so she can’t get to the poop to eat it!
If that doesn’t help, there are a lot of options. There’s dog toothpaste (they make flavors dogs like), treats (she might be too young for them, though), or toys. I think Booda Bones have a minty-flavored one. Rope-bones in general are good for their teeth.
