Toddler Fever

Hi mommies, If my boy (2 years old) is having a fever day 1, with a temp of 39.6, have been giving him ibu and para fever is still on and off. Do i have to sponge him when he is sleeping? He is light sleeper, whenever i tried sponging him, he will cry. How do i do this. 😢 #advicepls #FTM
