People can hold their breath for a few minutes and he knows the layout of his own house and were is kid is mostly likely to be more than any other firefighter could. If he is willing to try they have no right to stop him.
He expected his son to be on his bed. From what I read, it sounds like the boy was found on the floor. This means that given the fact that the man couldn't have seen at all in the house (thick smoke, night time, and no lights) and he likely would have been running into the fire, literally, he would have most likely stepped on his son and might not even have realized he did. Or he could have tripped over him. Or, if the son was on the floor on the other side of the room, he could have completely missed his son. There is no way he could have legitimately looked for him in smoke and fire. IF he would have been really lucky, the kid would have been on his bed. Most likely, he wouldn't have found him because of the dark, the smoke, and the fire.
