も means AND here. Therefore, 弟&妹are both subjects in this case.

も = inclusive topic particle
IN this case both 弟 and、妹 are subjects of the verb きました.

I think both of them are the subject.
For example,
「弟も、姉も、妹も、父も、母も、みーーーーんな来ました。」
It's like saying, 「弟 and 姉 and 妹 and 父 and 母も、みーーーんな来ました。」
instead of saying 「弟、姉、妹、父、and 母も、みーーーんな来ました。」
Go back to your question..
「弟も、妹も、きました。」
It basically means "both 弟 and 妹 came," so I think "弟も、妹も、” is the subject.
