SQL Logfile Questions

$

I have a Barracuda 690 backup device. They recommend using a full backup model for SQL jobs as opposed to simple.

Several times a week, I'm getting alerts via our MSP that the logfile is 96-100% full. When I run a disk usage report it will show that the logfile is using 2.75mb out of 3mb or something. I go in and expand the initial size of the log file to like 8mb thinking I'd be fine (it's set to auto-growth by 10% unrestricted growth). But the next day the initial size is back down to 2 or 3mb again. 

I know very little about SQL, but what can I do to make this madness stop? Should I switch to simple? What are the pro/cons of doing that instead of full?

Thanks in advance!
