Vets regularly suggest using baby aspirins for pain/fever. If that doesn't help enough, there are other pain relievers made for dogs that you can get from your vet.

Call your vet and ask for suggestion. I would never give my dog something that a stranger on the internet suggested. I've had vets approve some meds, but it would be irresponsible for me to suggest them to you with no vet experience or knowledge of your dog/breed.
Call the vet.
