That's weird because their newest API features allowed you to do just this, I think. It's called their Adaptive Payments API and the category of payments that would be applicable to your girlfriend's business is called Chained Payments.

BTW, I'm in Toronto too and use PayPal for my startup, so if you have any other Q's, email me. My info is in my profile.

You could also do a parallel payment, then you don't get in the middle of the transaction just divert part of it to yourself. Another good thing about adaptive payments is that you can specify who pays the fees. You can split fees between everyone or make the sender or a particular receiver pay the entire fee.
