Schwarzbier fermentation temps - Big swings with different yeast strains, need advice!!! Homebrewing

So I need some help... I'm stumped on this one. I made a 10G batch of Schwarzbier last Saturday and split the batch to use two different yeasts: Wyeast 2278 Czech Pils & Wyeast 2124 Bohemian Lager. Before I get to the issue, here is my process... (all temps Fahrenheit) Chill wort to 50 degrees, aerate once cooled, pitch yeast starter that has also been chilled to 50 degrees. Once fermentation starts I adjust temp on refrigerator down to 40 degrees or lower and turn on the heat wraps with separate inkbird controllers to hold 50 degrees with my inkbirds. I've used this process multiple times and I haven't had any issues until now.

Ok, so here's my issue.... 2124 Bohemian Lager initially spiked up to 60 degrees but came right back down to close to 50 degrees. 2278 Czech Pils spiked up to 66-69 degrees and won't come down. I keep ratcheting down the temp for the fridge but am now battling with trying to balance the two fermentation temps and this morning 2124 Bohemian Lager was 47F and 2278 Czech Pils was 67F! So should I be worried about the high initial temps with the 2278 Czech Pils? Should I just be patient as the 2278 Czech Pils temp has to drop eventually... Any other suggestions?

Thanks in advance for all of the help/suggestions!
