From your husband's several questions, his genital skin bumps may not be warts. If they are, you have been repeatedly exposed to and infected with the HPV strain causing them. Continued sex will have no effect; you're already immune to catching his HPV again. Being vaccinated might further reduce your risk of future warts or abnormal pap, but only a little. HPV vaccine is never harmful in any way.
