Default windshield washer fluid leak

Here's a new one, I'm getting a nice blue puddle forming under the driver's side front bumper. I've been going through a lot of washer fluid lately, thought it was just from heavy use during the recent snow. I'm assuming it's a leak in the windshield washer fluid plumbing for the left headlamp washer (always thought these washers were useless anyway) as I can see a trickle of blue fluid through the driver's side grill below the bumper.
Anyone else had this?
Any ideas on how to get in there and fix it?
Thanks

Check with your dealer. I remember there was a recall on this.
