please don't wait a minute - take the child to a doctor. Does the child drink water? Is the temperature normal? How much weight did she loose?

you need to take her to the doctor and see what's up. They might put her on a feeding tube thingy, I really don't know but take her to the doctor

Dark circles under the eyes can mean many things even allergies in normally healthy kids, take that girl to the hospital right away she may be seriously ill!!! a child may be a picky eater and not eat WELL for days, but it isn't normal for anybody to go days w/o eating.
