hello....
No need to worry.
You should get her evaluated once for her complaint to get her examined physically by a pediatrician.

If fever in > 102 and TLC >1700, its indicates Bacterial infection.
You have to do complete fever profile with Chest X - Ray.
After investigation your pediatrician will proscribe appropriate Antibiotic that cover infection.

I would advice:
Antipyretic for fever.
Cold sponging.
Plenty of water to keep your baby hydrate.
Soft and liquid diet.

Thanks,
i wish will recover soon
