You need to adjust temp then wait for it to stabilize check your owners manual, some take 24 hours to stabalize. Brinsea bators only take 1 hour (I'm a fan), I tried hatching with Little Giant incubators and the experience was miserable. My hatch rate numbers were about 50% My experience has been that 3 degrees too high for a short period shouldn't cause too much damage if you correct it as soon as possible. Humidity is more critical! Most of what I read says that high temps cause deformities, but you won't know until they hatch. Candle at day 8 or 9 and you will know for sure if any have died. I think some will still hatch, don't give up yet. Good Luck!
