As mentioned in your history that fever starts at 4 pm than I will say go for x-ray chest to rule out tuberculosis as evening rise of fever is peculiar in TB. If it is normal than he is most probably suffering from viral fever. For treatment you can give him some antibiotics like cefadroxyl or cefixime after an expert opinion with calpol or dolo for fever and omez-d or pan-d empty stomach.
