Yes. Get your qt as close as possible to the params of the fw dip tank/bucket (78-82 degrees, 0 ammonia/nitrite/nitrate, 8-12dKH, 8.0-9.5pH, etc.), then do the dip and move them to qt for a while. Your display tank will need to be fish-less for a few months before you can re-introduce them.
That said, if it's not bad and they're your only three fish, you can attempt to deal with it in the display. Feed your fish a lot of good, garlic- and vitamin-enriched foods, shorten your light cycle, and do anything you can to avoid stressing them.

Shortening the light cycle will not make any difference, but agree with the other 'aids'

Re: Help!!
How bad is the out break. Are the fish covered or do they just have a few spots. If its just a few I wouldn't worry about it too much. Reefers aim for ich free tanks but very few actually achieve that. A good diet, good husbandry and pristine water will keep the ich off the fish.
