Uh, well we've gone into the upper cost bracket several times. So that's what we would do.
The most common allergy for dogs is wheat. So stop serving her any wheat based dog food. That's easy because the market now has many inexpensive non wheat dog foods. Get cornmeal based or make it yourself.
Inflamed ears is usually caused by wheat allergies. Likewise the vomit.
It's also entirely possibly that it is something in your yard, hence the reticence to go outside. That would explain the irritated paws.
If your dog is suffering from her own environment, she will be snappish and act very much unlike a lab. It's not so much that she doesn't like kids, but that kids have the ability to touch everywhere it hurts on a dog without knowing it.
There's something in your yard or in her food bowl. Certainly don't put her down, plenty of people could probably accommodate her allergies. If you really feel you have to remove her from her family rather than research her problems further, make sure you take her to a no-kill humane society or SPCA shelter. You will likely be asked for a surrender fee, which will help her get adopted out.
