Sounds like something sticky could have possibly been spilled. Regardless, you need to get a new keyboard installed. It's most likely going to require removing a panel/housing from the bottom of the laptop & there will be 2 keyboard screws you need to loosen. From there, you can use a pry tool and slowly/carefully pry off the keyboard. Then it's just a matter of disconnecting the keyboard cable and replacing it.
You can usually find keyboards pretty cheap on ebay. You can search for them by the model # of your laptop, but it's usually best to go off of the part # on the keyboard itself(will be underneath the keyboard... something like #####-001
