Answer
This is most likely a fungal skin condition that needs to be treated by a vet. And it should be done quickly because it may be something that could spread to humans.  Do your kittens go outdoors or have contact with a dog? If so, that is probably how they got it.

Please take them to your vet. Most likely you will need to treat them with baths and/or dips in addition to medication. You may also need to clean and disinfect areas of your house where they have been to prevent a recurrence. This can be a royal pain in the you know where, but at least it is not something life-threatening.  Good luck.
