Since you posted that the post type is acf-field that tells me that your using ACF5, because 4 did not use separate fields.

I’m not sure that your query will deal with nested fields, like repeaters or flexible content.

ACF does have a function you can use to get all the field objects, as well as nested field objects that will return the fields in the same format as what is output when you export a field group to PHP.

$fields = acf_get_fields($group_key);
echo '<pre>'; print_r($fields); echo '</pre>';
