How are you going to get rid of the existing fungus even if you do kill it?

Frankly, I wouldn't put a lens on my camera knowing it had fungus.
Chances are, some spores are now inside your camera where they will probably do little harm. Then you put an expensive uncontaminated lens on . . . and it's now contaminated . . . maybe.

Yes and no in that order (but only because I don't have a UV light, otherwise the answer would be yes and yes).

I was advised to let it catch some sunlight to kill the fungus with UV light.
