You could try removing the foglights and pouring some bleach in them. Give them a good shake to loosen the fungai and then pour out. Refill with bleach and leave for a good few hours, just to kill off any spores and then give them a good rinse out and leave to dry thoughly before putting back on the car.

Don't think that this is related to your indicators. That sounds more like a Comm issue. Common problem is the indicators stop working but your headlights turn on instead. Can be fun when someone thinks you've flashed them out. ECP is probably one of the best places to go for a new Valeo unit.
