Hello, Welcome to forum. From the history stated it seems to be a viral infection circulating in your house Its very common among children, and usually occurs in many family members at a time. Please give paracetamol in dose as mentioned on the bottle and also sponge the child from top to bottom with normal tap water with every fever spike. Give the child plenty of fluids and rest.
