Micmo the French bike manufacturer that made Gitanes is no longer in business.

There are some modern carbon fiber bikes sold with the Gitane marque but there's no relationship to the old company.

The best solution is to find a shop that refinishes frames. You can buy decals for 1984 Gitanes that are close to those used on your bikes.

Cyclomondo in Australia sells those decals both on eBay and direct from his website:
