I need some advice

I don't know if this it the right place to ask or not, but I need help. If I need to go to another sub, please let me know.

We have a German Shepherd- Lab mix, and an Olde English Bulldogge. Both female. I've had the GS-Lab for about 3 years now, she was a gift, the Bulldogge has been my wife's dog since before we were married (about 5 years). They have lived together in our house for all three years, and they are both normally very docile, or in the GS-Lab's case, timid/scared/shy around new people and/or dogs. We had an issue when they both went into heat last year and they couldn't be in the same room with each other without trying to rip each others face off.

Now we have been living with my mother-in-law temporarily since August. She has a male Bulldogge, and a female pup. We know at least one of ours was in heat in September (bleeding). They all did fine together until a couple of weeks ago, now any time the GS-Lab is in the same area as OUR female Bulldogge, she attacks, she is the aggressor every time. We have to keep them separated at all times. I don't understand why the sudden change. We haven't found evidence of either of them being in heat, and they were fine with the male being around up until the middle of October or so.

We moved in to try and save up some money and pay off medical bills, so I really don't want to have to spring to get one of them spade right now (been quoted $500+), especially if I'm not absolutely sure that's going to help.

Any advice?
