Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
First, you should give your child a healthy diet, plenty of water to help increase her immunity. A warm shower will help the temperature to decrease and wet clothes. About the cough try aerosol with NaCl. Combination of Tylenol and Ibuprofen are the best solution. If all of these doesn't help then you should go to see a doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Elona Dashi
