Help Lola Beat Parvo

Donation protected
i got my puppy from craigslist from somebody that seemed trustworthy/cared for her only to find out that she is extremely malnourished and parvo positive. lola is now hospitalized at the vet fighting for her life. my partner and i are extremely heartbroken. 
i’m sharing this because i want to warn others. lola is a chihuahua mix and not some expensive/sought after breed.
the girl i adopted lola from has not responded to any of my texts/calls but i know lola has siblings that are in danger. her name is alexis zuniga. i paid her through zelle. supposedly she is from bell and now lives in riverside. all i have is her name and phone number.
the money is not important to me. i just want her to be reported and face accountability for the suffering she has caused. caring for a small, 1.5 pound puppy that is in the verge of death is not something i’d wish for anyone.
i thought i was being mindful in lola’s adoption bc the person did not seem like a breeder. they mentioned that they wanted pictures and videos as she grew. i paid her because she “proved” that she was dewormed and had her shots. i would never knowingly support a breeder.
i understand that this can happen to anyone. the only reason i chose craigslist is because multiple ppl told me that’s where they got their dogs from. i never expected to get scammed with an actual living creature. i never realized how cruel ppl can be.
my partner and i are making a go fund me to help provide for her medical expenses. the last few days we have spent a little over 1,000 to provide medication and antibiotics for her treatment. if she is able to overcome these next three days in overnight care (hospitalized), she’ll most likely have to stay for an additional watch for fluids and antibiotics. 

i’m asking for any help at all, whether it’s legal advice on how to report the scammer or a spare $5 towards lola’s medical bills. i am hoping that she pulls through. she seems like a little fighter.
