There are several things you can do:
1) Put a dam of stiff icing all around the edge of the layer before adding the filling.
2) Add less filling
3) Don't put the filling all the way to the edges. That will give it room to spread out when you put the next layer on top.
4) Give the cake time to settle after you fill it but before you ice it.
I hope these ideas help!

I agree with Holly, especially #2 and #3 in my own experience. Let me know if this helps!
I always use a stiff buttercream dam on the outer edges of the layers that will have the filling on them. Usually, I make the dam about 1 - 1 1/2" wide and about 1/4 - 3/4" tall depending on what type filling I am using. Then I use lollipop sticks or straws to keep my layers from sliding around or shifting.
I will try some of these ideas - they sound really helpful
