Clear Liquid In Ears, Itchy Ear Canals. What Could Be Done? Is This A Common Problem?

I have a clear liquid in my ears that makes my ear canals extremely itchy. The liquid irritates the skin on the outer part of my ear canal so much that it scabs over. Is there anything I can do to reduce the 'acidic' quality of this fluid (i.e. a mild baking soda solution???? or something like that? Is this a common problem?
