Charge 3 won't charge/hot on charger

[Reftis]

My fitbit is about a month and a half old.

Yesterday the battery seemed like it was malfunctioning, went from ~70% to 5% in a few hours. So I put it on the charger till full and then started wearing it again, then again started draining very fast.

I noticed the led light that was usually green was flashing red. 

Charge it up again and wear it to sleep, wake up in the middle of the night and it's dead. I put it back on charger, then in the morning I check it and it's very hot and won't turn on.

Just return it?

Hope you can help me. 
my Charger 3 started acting funny the screen has been going crazy. I just replaced the band after it torn when I was cleaning the band. I purchased a new band and placed it on my wrist when I noticed I had low charge, so I charged it over night n this morning the screen has been going crazy. I did as some suggest rebooting n charged it again now the screen has a straight white line across it and the red light is on, well was on. What can I do?
