In English, "ask the same question" sounds fine but in Esperanto "demandi la saman demandon" just sounds redundant.

Is there a better way to say this? Or is it OK?

Demandi denove la saman - that does it in Esperanto. We cannot expect a verbatim translation from one language to another, but if you want to you can use the verb "starigi" as in "Starigi denove la saman demandon".

I propose "fari la saman demandon" and "demandi la saman aferon".

Demandu la samon.

Demandu ĝin denove.

If you're looking for a more or less word-for-word translation then "fari la saman demandon" is perfectly fine, though of course there are other ways of putting it.. of which I would probably use "demandi la samon".

I would probably say rediri la demandon

Yes, starigi and fari can be used to avoid repeating demand/. Or you can say meti la saman demandon.
