Hello and welcome to Just Answer. You can let your vet know get her spayed which will take care of the pregnacy or you can allow her to have the puppies if you plan on using her for breeding . There is also medical abortion which is not without risk. You can read about these options here http://www.marvistavet.com/html/body_pregnancy_termination.html

It is inbreeding and is not desiresable but people do this all the time. It ups the chance that the pups will carry a lot of genetic markers from the lineage which can mean more health problems in the pups as they age.
