The file you want (assuming that your shell is bash) is .bashrc because it is run every time a bash shell is started, even if it is not a login shell.
Note, however, that settings that shouldn't be done multiple times, such as appending ":$HOME/bin" to the PATH, should be protected with an if so they only happen once, no matter how many sub-shells you start (such as by running something in parentheses), so that PATH doesn't grow without bound. The WORKON_HOME and PROJECT_HOME settings don't suffer from this problem because it doesn't hurt to set them again to the same value. I don't know about sourceing virtualenvwrapper.sh. (Guard variables are your friend.) For some of this stuff it may also be possible to set the environment of the X session, making it available in the environment of shells that are started by the window manager, but you'll have to do your own research on that.
