It's a Thai ingredient I believe. If you're in the Seattle area, try Uwajimaya Grocer. There is one in Seattle and one in Bellevue. Online you may want to do a search of Thai specialty grocers.
I'm guessing you're not talking about regular Thai fish sauce that's available now in almost every American grocery store in the Asian isle. The sauce I think you're looking for is a much more pungent, saltier and thicker called "nam pla rah." You can buy it online at many sites now or here: http://www.templeofthai.com/food/sauces/namplarah-5110000509.php
If you can tell me what exactly you're using it for, I can help you out better. Good luck and happy cooking.
