I agree with Claire. Enjoy something so much it is "addictive".

Literally, it means she was infected with a microbe. But figuratively, it means she found something that she was very interested in, something that she liked a lot, in this case, acting.

"she caught the bug" is usually slang for when someone gets sick from the flu. So in this case it's a metaphor, she tried acting and was infected with her love of doing it and can't stop.
