Do NOT attempt to put water on this type of fire! Also, DO NOT open the pan, as it will add more oxygen to the fire and make it burn even harder. Simply throw BAKING SODA on top of the fire, and it will die down. Be generous.
Edit: Chances are, if the oil is burning, the pan is open, so you will need to put a lid on the pan that will sit tightly and seal off any oxygen from entering that pan. As a precaution, I would suggest having a flame extinguisher or a fire blanket in the kitchen.
