your best bet is to bring it to a guitar shop and let them look at it... it sounds like it could be the action on your guitar... meaning its slightly bent
that or it could be a problem with the bridge...
its not too hard to fix

my best bet is that the action is bent... meaning ur guitar is slightly crooked and the strings are too close to the fret board

a shop can fix so thats your best bet

....just get your guitar maintenanced, or even setup to how u like it. depending on what the problem is, it could cost u some money to fix it, so while your at it, why not take it to a pro to set it up for u perfectly, and the buzzing will be gone..
