I can understand your concern dear and my sister's daughter does this even when she is nearing 3..it's better to use mittens idea and somehow get rid of this habit..you are also human..can't take care 24/7..it creates issues..my sister tries for maximum hygeine by using sanitizer.. regular hand wash.

Make her wear mittens for some time. Pull her hands out as soon as she puts inside. Slowly she will learn not to do that

Sucking the fingers is a habit taht wll go soon. However, ensure to take her hand off as much as you can, when she puts in so that the habit fades away soon.
