The rear deferential on our vehicle is leaking fluids. We are told it will be expensive to repair. How long can we drive with it in this condition?

If it's leaking I wouldn't drive it at all. That's gear oil that lubricates spinning parts inside the differential case. If it's leaking you could damage that and then have to buy a new differential.
