What a nuisance for you, but I know of this happening with some of my friends' dogs too. It's right that you need to clean away the total smell, like the poster above says, otherwise the dog will recognise that as one of their places to poo. You need something that will clear all the enzymes, not just what we humans can smell - a good option is to use a bio washing liquid, dilute a bit of that and use it to clean the area thoroughly, maybe the entire floor if it's a hard one. And then try to watch for her patterns as to when she goes or when you see the warning signs, circling and sniffing, and put her straight in the garden and hopefully she'll get back into her old good habits again.
