My toddler has had a fever of 102 all day and i haven't been able to keep it down, he just puked ibuprofen and he's been lethargic, what should i do?

Go to hospital now: Lethargy in anyone, much less a toddler, with fever who's puking is never a good thing and shouldn't be managed at home. This is not something that can wait for tomorrow (or monday) morning. So take him to your closest er now. Good luck!
