Dear DeMartino,

If your bunny is not spayed/neutered, then now is the time.  At the onset of puberty, hormones often cause aggressive behavior, and spay/neuter will remove the problem hormones, allowing the bunny to gradually calm down.

There are also many possible behavioral reasons for biting, and once she's spayed you will have to address the *reason* for her biting by figuring out what the circumstances are when she bites.  Is she being defensive?  Territorial?  Outright aggressive (seeking out people to bite them even when they're not near her)?  Each type of biting bunny requires a different type of behavioral coaching.  You can start learning more here:

I hope this helps.
