Default Overpair or set on one tone flop???

I've been struggling lately playing sets or overpairs without a match on a flop that has only one suit. Overbet the flop to eliminate the several possible flush draws? That just lets me bet into the made flush every now and then. If I play it hard on the flop and get called... do I bet hard on the turn? Bet it light and hope to boat? If you have any suggestions on how you play a one suit board with a solid hand, please let me know because I keep losing money in situations like these.
