Avocado Leaf fall

My newly planted Wurtz Dwarf Avocado (which was doing well) had all of its new shoots eaten off (by some unknown pest). It then developed a fungus disease in the leaf. I sprayed it with a copper mix Fungicide, but it has now lost all of its leaves. What is the prognosis?

PS. The pre-planting site was prepared according to book instructions (drainage, fertilizing, mulch etc.).
