    With all these posts you are making, you really should find the funds to take these kittens to the vet, or give them to someone who can.

    It could have a flea allergy, or it could be something more serious..
    You are doing the right thing with the warm cloth...
    You could try soaking a tea bag I a cup of warm water and using that with the cloth, it is a home remedy for humans when they have conjunctivitis, I'm not sure how effective it will be on a kitten but it can't hurt.

    It was worth a try...
    Just keep up with the warm cloth and water for a day or two and if there isn't an improvement you may need to book a vets appointment for some antibiotics.
