First, take a deep breathe.
Your circumstances are fairly common and most schools have policies
to accommodate them.

I would contact the admission folks at school B directly, as soon as you can.
They will be able to let you know what their policy is for students who have ‘change of heart’ before the beginning of their freshman term.

Don’t withdraw from school A until you speak to school B.

In addition, may schools will hold on to your application information if you decide that you want to transfer after your first semester/year elsewhere. This can be important as far as HS transcripts, standardized scores and recommendations. They Do generally need you to fill out another application and pay a new fee.
