I would do it even before then, and in conjunction with the max medication you're comfortable giving. Give meds, strip babe and put in lukewarm tub, like, just barely cooler than you would want to bathe in yourself. It's going to feel way cooler to babe because of fever, and you don't want to upset her because screaming can raise temp further. Use a washcloth to get water all over the kid, and watch her affect change as her temp comes down.
