M-x py-shell
will get you a new (I)Python shell.

This works for me in the sense that I get history from emacs (via comint)
rather than IPython's history, which works pretty well. It sounds to me as if
comint (which is responsible for running IPython) is picking up your bash shell
history. In fact if I have a running IPython shell and then start a new zsh
with M-x shell, type a couple of shell commands to the shell and then use M-p
to get the history, I get the shell commands and followed by my most recent
IPython commands and switching buffers to IPython and using M-p gives me the
shell commands and then the IPython history. It looks to me as if you might do
something like what's on the emacswiki:
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/UsingMultipleShells , but I'm afraid I haven't
time right now to try it.
Best,
