What Is The Cause And Treatment For 6 Year Old With Rash And Crusty Ears?

My 6 year old daughter has a rash behind her ear. Her ear gets crusty at the end and she has a cut at the bottom of her ear where her ear connects to her head. That seems to leak out a clear fluid. Now the rash has spread to the back of her neck. What could it be?
She also says it itches.
