Ferber method: I think you need to consider giving the child the opportunity to soothe himself to sleep. 10 month olds should typically sleep through the night. Whiskey is not a good idea for a 10 month old. Please see "Solve your child's sleep problems" by Dr Ferber

See a pediatrician: At age 10 mos, his front teeth are already erupting. If teething coincides with other symptoms, bring him to a doctor asap to determine if he has a disease aggravating his condition.

The good news is: teething rarely causes any serious problems. There are plenty of tricks (frozen wash cloth, cold spoon,rubber nubby, gel-filled teether) to help your baby. If no amount of Tylenol (acetaminophen) and frozen teethers are helping your baby talk to your pediatrician about prescription medication. Good luck.
