My right side indicator stays on when I turn my car alarm on - how can I fix it.

This only happens every few days, but the only way to turn it of is to sit outside the car for half an hour turning the car alarm on and off until it edventually turns off.

This is likely a fault with the control unit. Is this factory or after market system?

The signals are linked to the alarm control unit and symptom indicates a relay inside the control unit is sticking or you have a bad circuit which is most likely to be caused by leaking capacitors inside.

Most probably you would have to replace the control unit, unless you are able to repair it.
