I am also having a hard time keeping my fermentation temperatures down. I did ok with the primary, and the majority of the fermentation is complete, but now the temps are creeping up into the 74-75 range.

How does this affect my beer thats in the secondary assuming the fermentation really is done? Do i need to take drastic measure to keep it down around 70? (im using White Labs 001 68-73°F)
 
You should be fine. After primary fermentation is complete the higher temps seem to have less of an effect on the beer. You don't want it sitting around hot, but the temps you are talking about are fine.
