That is usually a warning saying "don't you try anything. Leave me alone". The male Betta will probably leave her alone if he is not really ready to breed. If on the other hand he is ready to breed he will start to build a nest and continue to ecourage her (by showing off/ flashing) to go under the nest with him.

Why is the female fighting fish attacking the male?

First of all, male and female fighting fish (bettas) shouldn't be kept together. They are both territorial and agressive. They may be fighting over territory. It may also be that the male is ready to mate and the female isn't.
