On fighters:

Launch them in small Groups instead of one large mass. Damage from ships weapons spreads through an entire group of fighters.

The other nasty trick I have found, if you can pull it off, is to move your carrier close enough to the target (this part CAN get hairy) for the fighters to fire on the target when they launch. Then you can launch the fighters and have them fire before the enemy can respond.
