Question 1996 avenger es won't start. Please help...

I got home normally one night, next morning the car wouldn't even try to turn over. All I heard was a clicking noise and kept trying to start it until eventually the battery died. I tried to jump start it, it gained life but still wouldn't start. Then the battery died again right after this time. I'm guessing it's the starter but I'm not sure. Could it be the battery cell or starter? I also found oil on the spark plugs but not on the sparker, just on the plug. Please, if anybody has an idea it would be greatly appreciated.

Take the battery out and have it tested and charged most autoparts stores will do it for free...Check the battery terminal and cables as well

Oil in the spark plug is it the 4 or 6 cylinder ???
4 needs valve cover gasket
6 cyl needs valve cover gasket and seal set (6 "o" rings)
