Experts say they should always be replaced in pairs-like tires. There is bound to be a mismatch between rebound ratings both sides & could adversely affect handling. On the back not as critical since almost all 50/50 & no steering.

What is the squeaking noise after hitting pothole in front end?

If its a strut type suspension you may have most likely bent the strut. Be sure to get the front end alignment checked. The strut is usually the weakest component. I hit a pothole and it did not affect the alignment however, the strut was making a terrible squeaking noise. My car has strut cartridges and the one that was affected caused the rubber mount to rub against the mounting fixture on the inner fender.
