I am no expert but it does sound like teething. Refusing to eat and fever are symptoms. I hope you can see these:

Teething can raise your baby's body temperature, but only slightly. Any fever over 100.4 F/38 C is a sign that your child is probably sick.

What are the signs a baby is teething?

Some babies get through teething with no signs at all, but many
parents report that their babies do experience discomfort. The most
likely signs of teething include:

Irritability or fussiness

Drooling (which can cause a facial rash)

Swollen, sensitive gums

Gnawing or chewing behavior

Refusing to eat

Trouble sleeping

Is it true that teething can cause a fever, diarrhea,
or a runny nose?

Some parents say their baby also gets a fever, diarrhea, or a runny
nose just before a new tooth arrives, but there's no scientific proof
that teething causes these symptoms. The American Academy of
Pediatrics says that although a baby's body temperature may rise
slightly when teething, a true fever (rectal temperature of 100.4
degrees F or higher) and diarrhea aren't normal symptoms. If your
child has a fever along with other symptoms such as lack of appetite,
vomiting, lethargy, or diarrhea, call her doctor to rule out anything
more serious.

If you can't just search for teething and you'll get a similar list of what to expect and what symptoms the infant/child exhibits.

As anongoodnurse has pointed out, an earache/infection or other illness might also be the cause. See your doctor any time you have a concern or the baby's fever is high lasts beyond a reasonable period.
