High fevers do accompany the flu, however, any fever over 102, especially in children, should be reported to your health care professional for advice. A fever of 103.8 is becoming dangerously high.
102 Degree F. (around 38.9 C) is usually the highest a fever in anyone should go, regardless of age, without making contact with a health care professional, especially if the symptoms are continuing to progress or there are other problems with breathing, swelling, vomiting, ears, etc.
Even slight fevers in children and infants could mean there is a serious infection, so they should have temperature checks frequently when they are sick (at least every 2 hours at first).
