2008 Honda Civic EX won't start!

Bought a new battery 10/2015.
All is good.
Car wouldn't start 01/2016. Replaced the starter.
All is good.
Car wouldn't start 02/04/2016. Recharged the battery enough to take it back to the store, where it was tested and found to be a dead battery.
Replaced with new battery. All is good. For one night.
New Car battery is dead. Charged it again last night .. and started the car this morning, but for how long? Something appears to be sucking the life out of my battery.

I checked the main fuse and appears to be okay. I've read some google posts about the ECU fuse and to reset it. Would this possibly work?

I am clueless when it comes to cars .... Please help.

See if the AC compressor clutch is stuck on.
A stuck clutch relay can kill a battery overnight.
