Is it just the oil plug that's stripped or is it the oil pan? If it's only the plug, get a new one from the dealer or a local part store (they are quite cheap). If it's your oil pan, then that's a pain. You'll probably have to put in a self tapping oversized plug or replace the oil pan. I would stay away from those cheap rubber oil plug replacement kits that fit in with a plastic screwdriver.
