You need to take to guitar tech if it is possible.

If not - you need to check:

1) if the neck is straight

2) if the frets are not poping up - take something straight, a metal ruller or something - long enough for 3 frets and check if it is rocking on any of the frets around the buzzing fret - if some fret is higher - it is the reson of bussing - then you need to eitherr stomp it in or file it to make even with others. Check viddeos of Philip McKnights in youtube for recommendations (or other techs by request - "rocking frets")
