How long is it since you took the snake out of brumation? Sometimes snakes will not eat for a week or two after brumation. This is not a problem.
If I understand you correctly, your snake will eat frogs and guppies, am I right? Have you tried 'scenting' pinky mice (rubbing frogs or fish onto the mouse so that it takes on the smell of the frog or fish)?
