I wouldn't run a third color without fetches, though. Even with fetches, running extra colors in a burn deck makes your mana base very painful (you want that untapped land every turn), allowing other decks to simply out race you.

You can build a workable mana base without them, but if you're using cards that require cards in your graveyard (notably the lavaman) or shuffle effects (Brainstorm and Top come to mind, but they're not in the format), you definitely need fetches. You also shouldn't play Searing Blaze without fetches (which is fine, since on the decks against which blaze is good, 3 isn't the important toughness number, and Searing Blood will do).
