At the most basic level, use these effects:
- Channel EQ (EQ > Channel EQ > Stereo)
- Multipressor (Dynamics > Multipressor > Stereo)
- Adaptive Limiter (Dynamics > Adaptive Limiter > Stereo)
The Adaptive Limiter should always be last and the EQ is usually first.
Beyond that, I can't really give you the best advice. I'm still a little new to mastering, and I don't want to hand out bad tips.

Any noise in that range is going to be irritating. It's not uncommon for producers to cut out that range, if not greatly lower the volume.
