I would get her in to see your vet as soon as possible. Two heat cycles back to back could be a sign of a uterine infection or a hormonal disorder. A uterine infection, if left untreated, can be life-threatening. Drooling could be a sign of nausea, possibly from pain. Your vet will do an exam, lab work, possibly x-rays, and based on these results, they will be better able to tell you what is wrong and how best to treat it.
