Default My B6 A4 eats light bulbs, Help!

I have a 2002 B6 A4 3.0 Quattro (standard headlights, not HID), and it loves to burn out light bulbs. This started about a year ago and it is getting old real fast. On average, in one month I go through: 1 headlight, at least 3 blinkers, and 1 brake light. On the blinkers I have noticed that it is not always the filament that is burned out, sometimes it looks like it arced between the terminal and the bulb. I have already tried replacing the socket for the blinker and it didn't help. If anyone has any ideas they would be greatly appreciated!! Could it be a ground problem?
