Will baggage be checked through to BKK upon check in at AUS, or will we need to retrieve bags in FRA and/or HEL and recheck them during the trip?

AA doesn't check through across separate tickets so your bag will just be tagged to HEL. You'll have to claim your bags in HEL then check them in again with Finnair there for your HEL-BKK flight.
