You could use “a few” in a negative sentence. It depends on the tone and the format of the sentence
- French (France)
It's been a few months since I last saw him/since I saw him last.
It's been a few months since I've seen him.
I haven't seen him in a few months.
I haven't seen him for a few months.
All of these options are grammatically correct as far as American English is concerned, in addition to having been profusely used by authors.
