Lucy sounds like she may have two issues going on, the vomiting and possibly an ear infection or ear mites. I would take her in to your veterinarian for an exam and see if she needs treatment for both issues. She may have gotten into something and gotten a stomach upset and need anti-nausea medication. If she has an ear infection or ear mites, this usually can be treated with topical medication in the ears.
