You must consider expunging the two DUI's. This may clean up your record in a manner that will save your career.

Sorry, but you're suffering the natural consequences of your actions. I don't believe you can get DUI's expunged. Even if you could, you would still have to disclose the convictions and expungements on applications for a licensed or credentialed position such as yours.
