I really appreciate your concern, underlying cause of fever is matter of concern it may be virus or bacteria, if it is viral infection then it will take 4 to 5 day till then high grade fever can be managed with antipyretic hydration needs to be taken care, in my opinion get done the blood test hope this information helps.
