Bad ground wont blow the fuse. Drawing too many amps or direct short. Sounds like direct short. Double check your alarm connections.

If the alarm is connected to the lights you might want to check there. One might be blown or there is a bad connection to them blowing the fuse. I would go through the wiring again.

The alarm is pulling to many amps for that fuse and then it blows right ? So what you should do is run the alarm through a bigger fuse or add a fuse just for the alarm.
