If the fuel is coming out the filler solely where the pump nozzle fits, that doesn't sound too off to me; it just means you overfilled the tank and left no room at all for expansion or sloshing. It's not wise to top off to the very tippy top; stopping at the first or maybe second click-off of the pump is appropriate (provided, of course, your filler is arranged so that it doesn't prematurely shut off when there's still many gallons worth of empty space in the tank--if it does that, it usually means the gas lines from the filler to the tank are not properly routed or are pinched or something). Besides the possibility of gas coming out, this is a good way to harm the vapor recovery system by having the recovery canister be filled with liquid gas.
If it's leaking from the hose or connections between the hose and other parts, yes something ought to be fixed: either a loose connection or a worn or damaged hose, most likely.
