well you can bring it to a body man to fix your problems, or you can just get some sand paper and sand down the rusted area, and if you have welding skills. weld in a new piece of metal on where ever needs to be replaced, and then sand it down, add some rust inhibiter, bondo it if you want, sand it again, prime it and then spray paint it.  
but your best choice is to bring it to your local bodyman and have him fix your problem.  
hope this info helps.
