I have a lot of fat around the chest/breast area, and no matter how many push-ups i do they wont go away. Is there a better way to tackle this problem.

you can't spot reduce
doing the pushups will tone and develop the underlying muscle, but everyone's body displaces fate differently. You have to expend more calories than you take in dailiy to burn fat, and its lost proportionately in respect to where your body stores it

You might have Gynecomastia. Doing push ups and what not can actually make it far worse and more permanent. Assuming it's not that, you have to lower your body fat percentage (cardio training is the way to go). Assuming it is, no amount of fat loss will help it and surgery is the only way to fix it. Pushups and exercise can make it worse by building muscle under the fat. It depends on if it is or isn't.
