I think typically it's best not to use jQuery and React together. I ran into some issues with it using Foundation and React. Mostly relating to when jQuery was loaded vs. when a component was rendered. That may have just been my particular situation though.

For Bootstrap specifically, you should consider React Bootstrap. It is components styled with Bootstrap CSS, but doesn't rely on either jQuery, or bootstrap.js.

If you really need jQuery, I don't think there's any harm in just including a <script> for it in your HTML.
