Sick 3 year old

Hello, my 3 year old girl is sick. She has had a runny nose for over a week, making it necessary for her to blow it. The discharge is clear and quite thick. It doesn't run outside her nostrils. She coughs when she falls asleep.
The night before she had a high fever. I gave her medicine and it went down. She was soaking wet with sweat. After 5-6 hours it went up again. Not so visible during the day. Much worse at night.
Her appetite isn't good, but when her fever is down she is in a good mood.
I decided to use the Remedy Finder. I have used it in the past for her and myself. Pulsatilla came up as the remedy that matched most symptoms. I gave her a dose 200c (unfortunately 200 was the only one I had and it would've been several days befor I could get my hands on something else)yesterday morning, last night and this morning.
Yesterday she started complaining that her throat hurt when she swallowed. This was not a symptom I put on the Remedy Finder. I looked at her throat and it is swollen and she has white patches on her tonsils.
Do i have to change the remedy? I am afraid that if I take her to a doctor he will immediately prescribe antibiotics.
Can someone please suggest something. I would appreciate any help!
Mich

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Please give her Merc Sol 30 at gap of 2 hours and Belladonna 30 in the same way.
Report progress after 2 days.

Thank you Libra981 for replying. I'm sorry but I'm not quite sure what you mean.
Should I give her merc sol 30 every 2 hours throughout the whole day? For how many days? Should belladona be given at the same time? Please reply so I can start the treatment.
Thanks again.

Both medicine should be given in alternation at gap of 10 min repetion after 2 hrs and when improvement start give it 3 times.

Libra,

First what is a dose? 2 drops in tablespoon of water
or if pellets how many?

Second- I think you mean

Give Mer sol dose and after 10 minutes give Belladonna dose.

Then wait 2 hours and do this same thing again.

When there is improvement, do this after 3 hours instead of
two hours,

Mich2010, if and when you start this- report back to
Libra after a day of doing this--on how this is going.
White patches in throat generally mean there is
bacteria infection.

I started doing this yesterday. I didn't kmow I had to give Belladona after a 10 min gap and gave it after 2min. I did it every 2 hours. Her fever still goes up high, but it has been 8 hours since it last went up.
Nasal discharge appeared a little green today and she still sounds stuffy.
After checking her throat, she is able to open her mouth more and tonsils don't seem as large and seem to have cleared up a lot from white spots. Her cmplexion is a little pale, but not worse than yesterday.
Overall she appears better today and she ate more.

Yes right. Merc sol should make her more better after bella work

She is much better. It's been 2 days since her last fever. She is cheerful and her appetite is back.
She continues to have a stuffy nose, only slightly runny. Discharge is usually clear and thick. It bothers her when she sleeps, usually on falling asleep ( the first hour). It sounds like it sticks to her throat and she starts coughing to the point I fear she might vomit. When she wakes up she is better, but today she is coughing more throughout the day. I can hear the mucus in her throat.
I checked her ears and the right one appears slightly red. Last Winter she was prone to ear infections, so I was wondering if I should give her something for that?
