My 2 month old little girl has found her fists to suck and because of this is constantly smearing spit all around her mouth and jaw.
It looks like her lower lip and the skin below it is starting to get a bit sore. Any idea as to how I could help? SHe won't take a dummy.

Sounds like a classic dribble type rash.
You could try smearing Vaseline around her mouth to protect her delicate skin, or even better some lanolin cream if you have some left from breastfeeding days?
aqueous (excuse spelling!) clears it up really quickly, not a solution to your problem i know, just takes the sore looking redness away! Good luck!
