Exclamation !Need Help -- 3 Abandoned stray kittens found in backyard

My husband and I live in south Etobicoke, and this morning we were in the backyard and noticed 4 kittens for the third time in a week. There is no sign of a mother and they appeared to be getting weaker, so we took 3 of 4 in (the 4th kept running away, too timid). We gave them some food (they were starving...
) and a bath to get rid of most of the fleas. We are caring for them for now, since we have one dog and one cat already, we do not plan on keeping them.

They obviously need to be checked by a vet, unfortunately, we can't afford to bring all three of them in. Can anybody suggest an inexpensive or free way to have them checked now and vaccinated down the road? We are planing to have a yard/bake sale this coming weekend to raise some money, but we are not sure if this is gonna be enough. We also want to try to find them good homes (responsible owners) once their health has stabilized and they are more socialized.

We also need some advice on how to care for really young kittens, they are only 4-5 weeks old, not really sure. We know all the local shelters are packed, therefore we are trying to foster them. Any suggestions are welcome!! Thank you!! We will post some pictures soon...
