Maltilda&twinks

Hi,
I know there is loads of stuff on here reference bonding, but I really need some experienced advice about bonding my three back again. Since Matilda got ill and was inside the house for a day, Twinkle decided to take Co-Co for herself and chased Matilda everywhere on her return. they settled down and were even grooming each other but the next morning they had been fighting in the hutch . I separated them immediately and brought all three into the house separating twinkle and Matilda and putting Co-Co in with Matilda to reduce the bond that Twinkle had developed. Twinkle seemed to calm right back down again after a few days and yesterday I tried to get twinkle and Matilda back together again. Twinkle was up for it, but Matilda has not forgotton and attacked again. I separated them again immediately but now I am unsure how long or when they will be to get back together again. I just want it to go back to how it was..
PS Co-CO is a darling, he grooms each girl when he is with them and then just eats the food in each side of the dog cage.
So my questions are - 1. Do you think I should remove Co-Co for now and put him back in the main hutch so that the girls can't get jealous of each other?
2. How long do you think before I try it again - do you think I should take them for a very long drive. My concern is now that the kitchen may not appear neutral to them as they have been there for a week??
Please help I am really struggling with my two beautiful girls who I love dearly and I just so want them to happy again with each other playing in the garden..
