It has to be warm especially at night for eggplant to thrive. At least 62 and 70 is even better. Daytime temps up to 90 (that's pushing it). Row covers for the flea beetles at least while the plants are young and before they start to flower. If your plants are literally wilting it could be verticillium wilt.
