I think the punning is more on 独女 (独り女), which I have just added. They really can't be merged, as the main reading of 独女 is ひとりおんな.

It's a pun because "doku" is spelt "毒".

Better to put in an entry for the full form and note this is an abbreviation. It's a common ABCD->AD formation. Certainly not a pun, unless you regard 独身女性 as a pun.
