The best way to deal with them is to hit them with fire damage. You can do this by using the Igni Sign, igniting them with the cloud from the Dragon's Dream Bomb, or throwing a Dancing Star Bomb. You can also throw Dimeritium Bombs to reduce the damage of their attacks and prevent them from forming icy spikes. When they do this all of your attacks will get deflected and you will take damage.
You should use your Silver Sword and coat it with Elementa oil to deal bonus damage to them. Prepare some Dragon's Dream, Dancing Star, or Dimeritium Bombs to throw at them depending on the situation.
