I had the same problem a few months ago. Ended up just being the power steering fluid, but yet again, my car only had 26,000 miles on it at the time. It's either you need a new pump, or you need to flush it out and change the fluid.
It seems more of a new pump problem with the higher mileage cars.

whats the best way to flush or get most of the fluid out of the pump?

I just got mine done when i got my oil changed. They used this pump machine but it cost like $70. There's probably another cheaper way to do it though.
