Well......you're getting a lot of good advice here that should work to correct your issues. You seem to want the problem to be something different than what many of us are pointing out.
At this point....you're basically mixing and mastering at the same time....and that's not a good idea. Use automation and compression (properly adjusted) on your drum tracks to tame the peaks.....not a limiter. Make sure your drums are not too wide in the mix. Use an analyzer to look at your bass and snare sounds to see if you can carefully carve out or lower any offending frequencies. Then apply compression and see what that looks like.
There are a number of ways to approach your issues so try and try again.
Ozone is good...but it will point out issues in your mix if you have them....and Ozone can't really do too much to fix mix issues due to single tracks.
