The poor dear. Sounds like a case of ear mites which can be common. What you are cleaning out of their ears, does it look like coffee grounds? See here: http://img.webmd.com/dtmcms/live/webmd/consumer_as...
Regardless, this sounds like it would be very uncomfortable for her. Take her to the vet. They should just give you drops which are no big deal at all. She will of course shake her head vigorously after you put them in which will make you think the drops will never work, but they will. Good luck to you and ope your kitty feels better :)

You shouldn't have to clean the cat's ears every day. It sounds like your cat might have ear mites, a yeast infection, or some other type of problem. I would have a vet take a look.
