I suggest that you visit a Honda dealership and purchase a new external
door handle or a part for the exisiting external door handle. You could
get a better deal from a junk yard dealer. Those junk yard dealers are on
a computer network and should be able to get you what you need even if
they don't have a wrecked Civic on the lot.

The control for the childproof lock is on the rear drivers side door.
