For beetles, I would go to the king of all beetles on the boards, Elytra and Antenna. He can tell you anything you will need to know incl. where to get grubs.

It depends on your states rules and regs. There are quite a few people in the US who have beetles of foreign extraction. Personally, Elytra and Antenna can better answer that with more specifics. He has litterally written books on the subject.
