Steep some cloves in that tea - clove oil is a local anaesthetic. And/or add a good dose of lemon juice, but don't skimp on the honey!
As for the fever ... as long as it doesn't go above 102 or so, I'd let it be. You're not doing anything anyway, and the fever helps kill whatever microbeasties are committing biological warfare upon your poor, afflicted tonsils.
