I found the info you requested: the actress to whom you refer is Shirley O'Hara and here are the episodes in which she appeared:

Episode #38
T. S. Elliot
Aired: December 15, 1973
Bob arranges for Carol to date Mr. Carlin--and they hit it off so well that Elliot immediately begins making wedding plans.

Episode #55
Dr. Ryan's Express
Aired: October 26, 1974
Jerry hires a supremely incompetent temporary receptionist who makes a mess of Bob's well-ordered office routine.

Episode #102
Et Tu, Carol
Aired: October 30, 1976
Bob faces the nightmare of adjusting to a new secretary after Carol drops him from her work roster.

(Incidentally, she also appeared on the Mary Tyler Moore Show as Mrs. Mallone in "Two Wrongs Don't Make a Writer" - episode #95)

I worked with a "Debbie" type - what a NIGHTMARE!!

I can fully understand Bob's reactions to her. Shirley O'Hara did a fantastic job playing this utterly confused individual.
