Hello, By what you say I feel that you are kid maybe having a viral illness. I will explain to you how do I really miss behave so that you can feel more confident. If in between two fever episodes with the kid is slightly better and looking normal then it could be viral illness, and you need not worry at all. Fever of a few days without any localizing signs could as well a viral illness. Usually rather than fever, what is more important is the activity of the child, in between 2 fever episodes on the same day.  If the kid is active and playing around when there is no fever, it is probably viral illness and it doesn't require antibiotics at all.  Once viral fever comes it will there for 4-7 days. So do not worry about duration if the kid is active. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
