Default Left Headlight Issue

My left (driver side low beam) headlight burnt out so I went out got two new bulbs and replaced the bulbs. Left headlight worked for about a day and a half and then it burnt out again. I guess I should look for where a possible short is happening or frayed wires.. anything other than that I should look for because around here when I come home late from work midnight+ and you the local cop sees you with one headlight its like 50/50 I'll get pulled over for it and then have to figure it out then haha.

Almost forgot the bulbs in question are low beam, high beam works because I have the seperate bulbs for low and high.
I took out the bulb (one I had in the car when I got it) and that burned out and the filiment was just broken in one spot ..the new one I put in and burnt out I took out just now and the bulb part was all bubbled up and blobby or whatever haha. I pulled the fuse for the left side low beam for now just to be safe

Thanks
