can you re-key a car?

if so, how difficult is it and how much does it cost? (average)

i'm not sure if the ex still has a set (key/alarm fob) to my car, and i'm feeling a little uneasy about it.

Yes you can re-key a car. I had to when my purse/keys were stolen. I dont remember how much it was since it was several years ago. I dont think it was that much.
Call a locksmith and see how much they are.

The cost will depend on the year/make of the car, and if the key is computerized.

ETA: You can get the alarm code re-programmed too, usually without changing the alarm itself.
