I wouldn't drill a hole in my headlights personally.
There is obviously condensation getting in from
somewhere and putting another hole in them isn't going
to help fix the problem. Take th headlights off,
remove the bulbs, and leave them set inside overnight,
or you can use the hair dryer as Bernd suggested.
Once they are dry inside, run a bead of clear RTV
sealant around the seam where the lens is attached to
the reflector. Then check the seals on the bubs
themselves to make sure they aren't cracked or
damaged, replace as necessary. Then put them back on
the car.
