we need a lot of more information (concentrations, pcr program, etc etc) to help you. Degenerated primers are not necessarily a problem, but usually helpful for a pcr. But any badly designed primer can ruin a pcr. Therefore if you think the primer are the problem, you also should give the primer sequences and perhaps the target gene.
