Tonsil stones would not cause pain just bad breath. Since you have pain and pus it could be strep. Antibiotics. See the doc.

Your messing around with something that's out of your league so the first thing I suggest to you is to stop. There is no such thing as "Tonsil stones" you can have tonsillitis, that means a tonsil infection. The strep throat is very dangerous, you should have both these checked by a doctor. You can't get "Pus" out of the white spots, it's a dangerous infection and spread it can raise heck with your body.
Try gargling with a mild salted water or drink hot tea and honey with a little lemon in it. Gargling with a mixture of half and half hydrogen peroxide will help the pain and ease the infection.
