You could try parking it up on blocks a bit and have someone push up and down 
on the nose while you try to listen underneath. If it's really that bad, just 
coming down from being jacked up, my guess is that it's the shock absorbers. 
You may even be able to feel the vibrating part while it is squeaking.

It is extremely unlikely that it is anything that can be cured by spraying it 
with something.
