If the threads on the drain plug are stripped and the pan threads are good, you can just replace the drain plug.

If it's the oil pan, there are still a number of pretty simple options: There are oversized plugs you can buy, rethreading kits with inserts or self-tapping plugs. And there are rubber expanding plugs that are almost foolproof. It is your choice as to how you want to fix it. Go to your local auto parts store and look at your options. Whatever you do, do not use a silicone sealer to fix it.
