I'm getting phantom notifications on my text message icon showing new text messages. When I check, there are no new messages. How do I stop this and how do I clear the numbers showing notification off my text message icon?

Try clearing the cache of the messaging app you are using to see if that helps. Clearing cache may clear the glitches.
To to turn off number counter all together go to device settings > apps > message app > notifications > tap on "app icon badge" to disable number counter.
