Yes two bic style lighters are allowed on your person or in your carry on bag.
no you can not refill a bic they are factory sealed
yes.
According to the TSA website (TSA.gov) lighters are permitted under special circumstances. You can bring a lighter on in your CARRY-ON baggage. Lighters that are unfilled/unfueled are allowed in your CHECKED baggage, but filled/fueled are not allowed unless in a special case (this is because prefilled lighters, such as a bic, can explode in the unpressurized underbelly of the plane, while the cabin is pressurized, which would prevent rupture).

An average BIC lighter can cost anywhere from $0.50-$1.50. Depending on which state you live in, the tax can be high or low.
