I am sorry to hear about Mia. If she is very lethargic/weak, has blood in the vomit, or has a painful abdomen then I think she needs to be seen by her vet right away. If she seems energetic then you can try removing her food and water and fasting her for 6 hours (no food, no water,no treats, no grass or things in the yard if she goes outside) and see if the vomiting stops. If it continues she needs to visit her vet. If the vomiting stops you can slowly reintroduce small amounts of water, then food https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4951323 , but if she starts vomiting again she needs to be seen.
