You have to wean the puppies by making gruel and taking the mom away for half the day today so they do not nurse on mom. I wean my puppies starting at 4 weeks old and they are fully weaned by 5 weeks old. You can soften puppy food and add a little cottage cheese. It's got to be very mushy because puppies don't have teeth yet and won't be chewing.... they will be licking it.
As for the mom, take her to the vet ASAP. She should not have a fever. Keep us posted!
