Need help!! 88 2.8 fuse issues..

Hello all. i have an 88 firebird 2.8 and i went to replace all my fuses, and on one of my fuses, it keeps blowing. it says to put a 10 in, and i go to put a 10 in and it blows up. i put a 15 in, it blows up. i put a 20 in, it blows up. PLEASE help! any ideas on what could be wrong? i need new fuses because my dome light doesnt work, and nor do my brake lights when i step on the brake. when i flip up the headlights, my taillights do light up however. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

you might want to put in a circuit 10 to 15 amp circuit breaker in where the fuse is and start unplugging items on that circuit to find the short.
