Tina: It may depend on how much damage was done. But try the SEARCH feature. There have been many posts on repairing the door lock mechanisms.

Technically, the repair shouldn't be too bad, but it takes some time and patience.

Take a look at this article:

and some of these other ones related to disassembling the door:

Good luck, and post more questions and pictures if you need help.
