Try to get them to do a bit of research on ringworm, maybe do a google search and say come look at this or something.
Unfortunately the cats really need to be in quarantine until they are clear as not only can you catch it from handling them, anything they touch will also be contaminated. Since ringworm spores may survive 12 months or even as long as two years on hair clinging to surfaces. So even if you clear up the infection in the cats unless everything that they touch is also treated you are risking reinfection
