Have you tried disconnecting the battery negative terminal for a few minutes?
The fog lights are computer controlled. If the above suggestion doesn't work, you may have fried something on one of the circuit boards in the TIPM.

A TIPM is around $250. They have been on a long back-order, but some people have managed to find one.
Price of installation varies a lot.
What was the nature of the short you had?
