Battery Acid Spill. Help!!!

I think i overfilled my battery with water. About a month ago i opened the hood i saw a white powder on the battery and i noticed that metal parts below the battery were corroded. I think the white powder is dried acid. So i threw some baking soda on it (it bubbled up). Then i rinsed it with water and dried everything off. It was all squeaky clean. I checked it after some time and the white powder was there again, cleaned it, and after some days white powder reappeared. I believe that the water&acid level rises when i drive and gets spilled around. How do i cure this problem?
