1995 Honda Accord 4 cyl Automatic 167000 miles

I have a 95 Honda Accord Lx. My powersteering belt went flying off and smoking one day so we replaced the belt and the p/s pump. After we replaced both items it ran fine and the steering was great. The next day, when we started it up the p/s was sticking and squealing the whole time we backed out of the parking space, and once it reached a higher speed, it went away. We took the powersteering pump back to AdvanceAutoParts and recieved a new one. We are still having the same problem with the 2nd new pump and we are not sure what to do. We were in a small collision a couple of days before this first occured, it has been leaking fluid from somewhere since before all of this, and my boy friend forgot to use Honda p/s fluid when he replaced the pump after the initial "belt blow off". Your help is much appreciated.
