When I run a merge to combine 4 polygon features it is only keeping the attributes from the first feature selected in the merge tool and leaving the rest of the attributes as null for the remaining 3 features. How do I combine all of my features into a single feature and keep their attribute data?

If you're using the Merge command in the Modify Features pane, using default behavior this is expected.  But if you slightly change your workflow to create a new feature with the Merge command and choose to preserve their attributes, you can.  See the documentation here for the correct workflow.
