  Do you have any mechanical and/or electrical ability?
  Disconnect the battery cable, and connect a test light between the cable and the battery terminal. The light will come on.
  With the doors closed, check for glove box light, trunk light, engine compartment light etc. Make sure the courtesy lights are out. Then begin to remove fuses, one at a time until the light either goes out, or dims considerably. Now you have located the circuit that is the problem. Locate the component or wire or circuit that is the parasitic drain and repair it.
