My television screen gets dark and the picture turns red and blue. I turn it off and on again, and it works fine for a few minutes. The problem persists for a day or so then it returns to normal for a month or two. How can this be fixed?

Assuming this is a TV with a picture tube and not plazma or LCD; I'm afraid that your picture tube is dying on you one electron gun at a time. From what you said your green electron gun is almost totally dead and the two remaining blue & green guns aren't far behind. Eventually you'll have no picture at all and I would estimate that to be about 6 more months but whatever the time eventually it will go totally black. These blackout periods will get longer and longer. The only way to fix your problem is a new picture tube but my will probably find it less expensive to just get a brand new TV set.
