What Causes An Ear Infection With High Grade Fever?

I have an infection that begins in the earlobe and continues throughout the ear, the cheek, and the neck. No open wounds. It is accompanied by a high fever and a lot of pain. No doctor has ever found a cause but it has been happening for about ten years. Any ideas?
