Don't panic, she can live a long time without eating. What you don't want is the house too cool. She will be less active and may not move around much. An old trick I used was to sprinkle flour or powder lightly along the floors near the walls ( where there is no carpet). Put small containers of water along some of the walls, so if she searches for water she will disturb the flour.
Then if the flour is disturbed you can isolate the room where she is hiding. Check out possible hiding places, like shoes or other items in closets, and move them temporarily into sealed cardboard boxes. The fewer hiding places available the better.
