You can use the SPWeb GetFile method to retrive the SPFile located at a specified url. Try something like this:
SPFile file = SPContext.Current.Web.GetFile(string.Format("{0}/{1}", x, y));

Very similar to above, the SPSite object does actually remember the URL it was opened with - so you don't have to give a Web name. You should be able to use something like:
string url= "Full URL to File";
using (SPSite site = new SPSite(url)){
using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
{
SPFile file = web.GetFile(url);
SPListItem item = ...

I would recomand you read this article from Waldek concerning problems revolving with web.GetFile() available at http://blog.mastykarz.nl/inconvenient-spwebgetfilestring/ and confront with your code, particularly when you passing a certain URL to the method.
