I'd definitely suggest to lower the temp for right now. If you want to create a temp gradient, you can buy a peice of heat tape (reptilebasics.com even connects it for you)and put it under a third or half of your enclosure (regulated with a thermostat) and that will create a temp gradient for your enclosure.
In accordance with this, purchace a infrared heat gun and find out the temps of the heat tape you are using. Make sure your thermostat isnt faulty.
