Are you talking about Frisian Flag? It's not sold in the U.S. as far as I know. But Parmalat tastes almost the same.

i don't think you can import milk without having fda clearance. thus, if it aint on the shelves in the usa, then it's unlikely you can import them directly.

the milk you're referring to is actually called "cream" and not "milk" - but i too forget what its called.
