My 3 month old kitten Bella jumped off the sofa earlier and hurt her front left paw. She was limping earlier and was able to put weight on it. Now Bella is not putting any weight bearing on her foot and she also holds her left leg up while she sits.I don't have the finances right now to take her to the vet. What can I do to help her? Also she has been eating and drinking.Just worried. Thanks for any advice.

Your kitten really needs to be seen by a vet. She may have a broken bone in her paw or a strained it, neither of which you can treat at home.

See this for how to afford vet care: http://www.thecatsite.com/a/no-money-for-vet-care-how-to-find-help-and-save-your-cats-life Vet bills can be unexpected and typically expensive so try to have a plan on how to afford future bills. Some people use pet insurance, others set aside money in a bank account to use, etc.
