I wouldn't go for a pawhut or Ikea hack because she'd chew the wood but you could look for a large aquarium and make a diy meshed lid. Junglepets make tanks or check ads for a large second hand fishtank.
I don't think sprays work and could do more harm than good by irritating damaged skin even more.

Hiya, thank you for your advice. I'll definitely try putting cardboard in the corner where she chews. That's a good point about the spray damaging her skin more and it doesn't seem to work so I'll stop using it. If all else fails I will look into getting her a new glass tank. Thanks again
