Hi Diana,
Being that wintergreen is a saicylate source I would avoid it with the flu.
As for fever this is part of the body's defense mechanism. It should not be suppressed unless it goes above 102F. Even if it goes higher the best way to reduce the fever is with cool, wet towels especially on the forehead and behind the neck. If the fever goes above 105F then a cool bath or getting to the hospital is recommended.
