Plenty of questions regarding this issue but none of them explain where exactly those two lines should be placed:

<Property Id="ARPNOREPAIR" Value="yes" Secure="yes" /> 
<Property Id="ARPNOMODIFY" Value="yes" Secure="yes" />

Tried searching online, on the documentation itself but no luck

EDIT

I tried putting them inside my tag but it's still there:

I ran into this same issue today and the accepted answer did not hide the Options button or disable the Repair button in my WiX standard boostrapper.

To hide/disable the Options and Repair buttons in a WixStandardBootstrapperApplication first add the BalExtension namespace (top of your Bundle.wxs):

<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"
     xmlns:bal="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/BalExtension">

Then in the BootstrapperApplicationRef element add the SuppressOptionsUI and SuppressRepair attributes setting both to yes.

<BootstrapperApplicationRef Id="WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.RtfLicense">

    <bal:WixStandardBootstrapperApplication LicenseFile="YourLicense.rtf"
                                            LogoFile="YourLogo.png"
                                            SuppressOptionsUI="yes"
                                            SuppressRepair="yes" />

</BootstrapperApplicationRef>
