What is the typical sequence of treatment with swollen lymph nodes and high wbc?

It depends: The swollen lymph nodes and elevated white count could be because of an infection or an abnormality in the white blood cells.

Depends on cause...: This could be due to an infection, or it could be do to a cancer (leukemia or lymphoma). Further testing can be performed to determine the cause. Once this is known, treatment can then be appropriately planned.
