Abandoned kitten, not doing so great

I took in these kittens whose mother has abandoned them in my front yard. I waited for the mother to come back, but she never did so I took them in. They are 4 weeks old. Two of them are just fine happy and healthy. One of them is not doing so great. He was doing just fine this afternoon and all of a suddent he started getting sick. He first started with just sitting there and not wanting to move and would slowly lay his head down. Now he is so weak, he will barely even move. I have been feeding them kitten formula, he was eating normally this afternoon, and now since he is starting to get weak and barely move I tried to feed him and he ate some. I am keeping him in a warm blanket and he is sleeping, but what else can I do? I really don't want him to die Any help would be appreciated.

The only advice I can offer is to take the kitten to the vet.

Good Luck.

I called the 24/7 vet and the guy was a complete prick and basically told me I should take them to the pound and that he doesn't have time for that when he has older pets with owners to take care of. So thats why I asked on here. When I didn't get answers on here right away, I called back and spoke to a vet tech and she gave us some help, she told us to keep him warm, keep trying to feed him every hour and give him a tiny drop of baby tylenol every 8 hours, and it's been an hour since we gave him the tylenol and he has improved so much. He's up walking around, he ate some more, is climbing over his sisters. Thanks for responding
