Get him examined by a doctor in Emergency room

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your.
The episode of unconsciousness described by you seems to be an episode of seizure. In presence of fever it needs to be taken seriously.
You need to take him to an ER for examination and investigation as needed.
If he has regained consciousness, then put him on bed rest and give ample Fluids.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
