I didn't know she was married let alone my bosses wife! I've called it off but I'm worried that my boss will find out. No doubt I will be fired and possibly worse. I can't afford to lose my job. What do I do?

 Don't tell him!! I doubt she is going to tell her husband she has been sleeping around. He can't exactly fire you either if he does find out, the worst thing he can do is make your job a living nightmare. Also I doubt you want to be responsible for ending their marriage if you did tell him.
Just wait and see what happens, if he does find out, play dumb and pretend you didn't even know she was his wife, which you didn't anyway.
Good luck

For the sake of your dignity and job you need to get him before her. There'll be a slim chance he'll believe you but it will be a better thing to do.
Tell him that you just found out that she was his wife and called it off and swear that if you knew thay you would never have done it.

Does she know that her husband is your boss? I'm guessing nothing will happen anyway. She's hardly likely to tell her husband that one of his employees was bonking her unless she's looking for a divorce.
The best thing you can do is keep quiet about it and hope that no-one else in the workplace knows anything about it.
