When I got home tonight the little girls eyes are almost swollen completely shut. I really don't have the money to take her to the vet. I really hate that someone was irresponsible and left the kittens on our doorstep and I hate that there is absolutely no help for people it happens to.
I feel terrible about the kitten

I feel so terrible that someone did this to you - it's the last thing you need right now.

I think I am just going to take them to the humane society tomorrow and hopefully they will take them.

Check the internet to see if a local cat rescue group can help you get some ointment or Vetericyn. If you can't do anything else, apply the warm compresses every couple of hours and keep the eyes open and clean.

If the infection gets a lot worse or if an eye starts to bulge out, it may be viral. In that case, taking the kitten to a shelter to be euthanized might be the kindest thing to do.
Check the internet for cat rescue organizations in your area. They may be able to help you.

Obviously, someone thought you were a kind hearted person. You may not want the kittens or be able to afford them, but the person that left them on your porch paid you a compliment by entrusting them to your care.

If for some reason they can't, I wonder if a vet would do a diagnosis for free knowing that you plan to apply for a grant? (I think the spay issue can be explained, since it was a young kitten that was "dumped" on you.)
Sorry you are having to deal with this, and thanks for doing what you can to make sure that the fur babies get the best care you can manage.

I hope you can get this taken care of and hopefully the Human Society can assess this and provide for the kitten.
