You have whats known as adware on your computer, its a type of malware that injects adverts into web pages that you view. The form this malware takes is usually browser addons / extensions or toolbars. You should remove any such software you have installed and if that doesnt get rid of the problem, run antimalware scanners such as MalwareBytes Antimalware and SuperAntiSpyware.

Once you have eliminated the adware from your system, i recommend adding the safe and highly rated FB Purity browser extension for blocking out the normal facebook ads (sponsored box and sponsored stories / application and game spam etc: You can get it here: http://fbpurity.com
