Default Gas fire place difficult to light

I have a gas fire place that is operated by a switch (light switch).
It worked fine until last year. I have the pilot lit, and when I turn
on my switch, nothing happens. I have to open up the lower louver and
hit the red ignitor switch a few times.
Last year, I only had to do this the first time after turning my pilot
back on. So far this year, I have had to do it every time.
Is this a simple fix, or do I need a fixit guy?

Thanks
