Sounds like it time to replace the heater core. The job is a real pain, but it is doable by the amateur mechanic.
What type of fluid? Antifreeze should be readily indentifiable. As a matter of fact, so should motoroil , P/steering and transmission fluids.Brake fluid would be underneath the car at a wheel position or the left sidefirewall master cylinder location..

Ask a neigbor or mechanic to try to identify the fluid and possibly where it is coming from.

The usual suspect for this symptom is a leaking head gasket. Check oil to see if has a brownish color. If the head gasket is leaking the coolant is being burned off in the engine as well as coolant is going inot the crankcase (oil).
The fix is to replace the headgasket. More info, let me know.
