May be fever was not there if fever medicine was given. Acne does not cause high grade fever unless there will be secondary infection there.
To come on conclusion i need detail history and reports and photo.
Next Steps
Monitor fever if more than 100.4F give paracetamol as per dose.
Consult pediatrician in person or online.
If report is not done need to do reports

In such scenario monitoring of temperature is a must. Keep a record of fever spikes and degree of temperature. You should have shared a pic of acne and various blood reports done at BLK. If high suspicion or contact positive for covid, repeat testing can be done.
You are correct in mentioning that pustules can also cause fever. A pic would have helped in making a diagnosis.
Hope it helps
Thanks
