I have a Pit Bull puppy named Ginger. She is nearly 2 months old. When she plays or gets excited she bites. She doesn't sleep when she needs to at night. I will wake up because she is crying or is chewing things she shouldn't like blanket fluff, hair, and pillows. She has tons of toys and I am not sure how to get her to stop. Can some one please tell me how to fix this?

Interrupt her when she is chewing with a loud noise, and give her something appropriate to chew. Praise her when she chews something appropriate.
I would crate her until she is trained so I could get a good night's sleep.
She will be teething until about six months. Perhaps give her ice cubes or frozen wet washcloths to chew. It might help numb teething pain.
She is teething.
Provide things that are safe to chew on. Remove other things from her reach. Try not to leave clothes lying around and shoes outside closets.
My suggestion is to put away her toys until it is play time. Try to make the same time every day. Something special she can look forward to. When she needs to chew have one item you call Chewie and no to other things. That way she understand what is for playing and what is ok for chewing.:)
