Check for any areas where moisture could get in. (seals, corner signals, headlights, highbeams)

What car do you have?, do you still have warranty?

Best to take care of it right away before it gets worse.

Take a blowdryer and try drying it up or a airhose (Mind you it will leave moisture marks inside the headlight which look like shit)

give n-motion a call. they used a smoke machine to find the leaks in the headlight in my old car. in my case it cost around $70-80 if i recall... much less than the $700 it would have cost me for new
