If you are working on a transparent background:

When filling colors, at the top of the Tool options dialog for the paint 
tool, set the paint tool "Mode" to "Behind", to make it "fill the 
transparency" and leave the rest untouched. If you are using the 
bucket-fill set the Threshold value to the highest value that doesn't 
cause a spill (about 150 for black lines on transparency).

Comparison of the methods (I believe you are using "Normal" mode with a 
low threshold): http://imgur.com/hSwJoX0
