I used to be able to do all fly events, even if not so well, but now, after 5 years out, I am only able to do a 25 well and a 50 not so well. How do I get back whatever it is I lost in those 5 years. How do I work up from a 25 to a 50 to a 75 and 100?

I agree with what everyone has said above.
I watched Michael Phelps fly video last weekend and one of the things they said was because of the significant energy cost, Michael does a lot of different fly drills. A couple are triple kick fly and one double arm followed by one single arm with the single arm alternating left and right. Doing more fly drill should allow you to add more fly to your workout and also let you focus on technique such as hand entry.
