Poor baby.....Try giving him a cool bath and keep giving the tylenol. If it doesnt go down within the next few days I would take him to the docs. Hope he's ok Smile

Take a shower with him, he will be more calm by hearing your heartbeat really close and the cooler water will bring his temp down. Good luck.

A bathtub will work just the same, lay him on your chest and if the water isn't up high enough to cover him get a wash cloth or medium towel to soak in the water and lay it his back so he won't get cold.
