Unless you can prove that he's mentally incompetent, the court is not likely to order treatment.

What you can do is file for divorce and ask for temporary custody. As soon as you file for divorce, there will be an automatic order that he can't take the kids and hide them - if he does so, you go back to court and have him found in contempt and then probably get the FBI involved (if there's any reason to believe that he crossed state lines).
