      Well, your car would likely be running noticably worse if it was a blown head gasket, so I doubt it is that. If both fans are running its not a relay problem. However, if your coolant is getting warm enough to boil, your radiator fan should be coming on before that.

      I am guessing the water is boiling in the coolant reservoire? How did you find this out?

      To me it sounds like a bad thermostat which is an easy fix.
