Smile gas smell in car when driving

I have a 96 eclipse spyder gs and have a problem with a gas smell in the car while driving. when i park the car there is a strong odor of gas around the passenger side rear wheel by the gas filler door. Can anyone help me out on what may be causing this odor. Thanks.
