It is important to know where in Italy before you can search. Here is a cool web site that shows the place where certain surnames are found in Italy, that can be helpful to narrow it down. https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Italy_Genealogy
Also, here is an article in the FamilySearch Research Wiki that is helpful for Italian genealogy.

Records earlier than 1800's are harder to find. The church may have records. Civil registrations started in 1865.

According to the Indettalgio website there are three locations in Lombardy where the De Tanti surname is more common--http://italia.indettaglio.it/eng/cognomi/cognomi_lombardia.html. Unfortunately, you would need to know which parish in order to find the records, especially because Milano is one of the cities and so large!
Good luck.
