You need to get some antibiotics. The white stripes you mention are actually infection, that's why you feel so lousy. You could in the meantime gargle warm salt water and spit it out. This often helps to get some of the infection out. But you will still need antibiotics, especially since you have a high temperature too.

Drink hot tea, drink plenty of clear liquids. Gargling on a small amount of salt water can also help sooth a sore throat.
Gourmet Flossie
Gargle a glass of warm water with 1 tsp of salt in it, will also help to fight the germs
Also drinking hot water with real lemon juice and active honey will soothe.

Gargle warm salty water. Suck on some honey. You can use cloraseptic to numb your throat.
Try not to have hot things. If you have strep which is a bacterial infection it can actually cause it to grown more.
Try Advil. This will help you with your fever/pain/inflammation of your tonsil.
You will have to go to the doctor for antibiotics. They are not available over the counter.
Steam from a hot shower can help you breath better.
