Was the Buck still with the Doe when she had her 2nd litter ? If so she may be pregnant yet again, as I guess you must know given what has already happened

With regards to hand rearing, it is often not successful but if you intend to continue to try then this link should be useful to read

Just feed the kitten milk, they can also have goats milk but don't feed cream made from cows milk.

Does mum have any milk? I imagine so if she's already rearing one litter. If so then you can help baby feed by holding it to a nipple. That will be better than any substitutes. Hold mum in a sitting position (distract with food) and hold the baby to her.
