A compound indirect object functions exactly the same as a single indirect object:

Marcy sold Joe and his little brother three pizzas for her fundraiser.

Marcy is the subject. Pizza is the direct object. Who did she sell them to? Joe and his little brother. Joe and brother are both indirect objects.
