What can put out a fire instead of water?
Water just suffocates fire, and that's the reason it goes out. Just get another substance that's not flammable, and put it on the fire. Sometimes, if the fire isn't too big, then you can smother it with a blanket. Even bombs can put out fire by exploding and making smoke, which takes away the fire's oxygen. Fire needs oxygen to still be there.
