This is really bad, and I would consider it a medical emergency. This cannot be treated at home, Areil needs to see a vet now. Please take her into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website.
