If it's the "start" capacitors that are blowing that quick it's because they're in use too long. The start capacitors are usually round in black hard plastic cases. There is a "start relay" that should take them out of the circuit (disconnect) them as soon as the compressor reaches 3/4 full speed (that like the blink of an eye). They're only designed to do that 60 times an hour without damage. If they're in the circuit any more than that they overheat and fail very quickly. That could also damage the start windings inside the compressor.
