The author has said it herself - Fred's power is physical. So, technically, Fred can't be affected by Bella's shield and doesn't have to be in range of Renata's shield to use his gift on her.

" … I felt something else, something totally unexpected―a wave of revulsion so overpowering that I couldn't hold my crouch. I crumpled to the floor, gasping with horror. "
