Many women have some hairs around the nipple (on the areola). This is perfectly normal because there are hair follicles in the areola. There is no need to 'treat' the hair, but if you absolutely don't like them, cut them off with scissors - don't 'pluck' them with force because that can damage the hair follicles.
However, if the hairs are so many that they mimic the male hair pattern on chest or if they keep growing in larger and larger quantities, that may mean that the body has higher levels of androgens (male hormones) than normal. If a woman has excessive hair growing in typical male hair pattern, the symptom is called hirsutism. There are many causes for hirsutism, so please follow the link above to learn more.
One common cause for such hirsutism is polycystic ovary syndrome. However, don't use the mere existence of hair as a "diagnosis" for that but consider all other factors and possible symptoms as well.
It is possible to use laser hair removal treatment on areolas

Yes. Some males and females have them.
They can have color or be "peach fuzz".
