Buy a new one

Its probably just the crank arm if its only the left side. Bearings don't necessarily make your cranks creak, even if they aren't sealed. Try to clean it all up and tighten the bolts as much as you can because it could be loose and if there is even a small amount of play in the crank arms it would cause it to creak.

Ok so I'm no bike expert but it doesn't sound to good and when one part of a bike starts breaking it's all downhill from there so maybe consider a new bike. If there is an R.E.I store near you, you should get a bike there. That's where I got my bike and they really last

Hope this helped, probably not but I tried

use oil... I don't know, sorry...

reassemble it. You'll most likely see the problem in the process.
