Hi, my car has fog lights installed in the bumper but I do not have a switch to turn them on inside? Am I missing something?

history of the car?

also the fog lights are kinda pointless so you're not really missing anything by not having them functional.

yeah pesky inspections.

As what's needed to get them going, you're going to have to check or wiring, chances are there maybe none if you don't have the proper headlight switch.

It may be as simple as this - turn your light switch to ON position and then grasp the switch and pull it toward yourself. The button will come out slightly and activate the fogs. I hope it is this simple, unless I am misunderstanding the question.
