Morphology

frakking = frak (semi-transparent) = frak + ing

The form is built from the euphemistic base 'frak' plus '-ing', but its use as an intensifier is a conventional slang extension rather than a fully literal participial meaning.

Etymology

Frakking comes from the TV show Battlestar Galactica, where characters used the made-up swear frak as a milder stand-in for the f-word. So frakking is often used like 'very' or 'really' to make a statement stronger.
