    Make sure you're using dechlorinated water with the coco fiber also, not just the water dish. How is she doing? She may need a visit to the vet.

    You said you handle her every other day, which is really bad for the toad. Try to handle it only to remove it while doing a cleaning. Toads can absorb oils on your hands through their skin. It could be the cause to it. My second guess would be the water or a combo of both.

    Amy has you covered on all the things to change, and if she hasn't pooped yet, warm some frog safe water, just remember, warm to you is hot to them. So warm it just above room temp and have her soak for about 30 min. Do this in a covered container so she can't get out and deep enough to come up to the bottom of her chin.
