Try a plumbers helper (plunger) if drain cleaner has not removed the clog. A plumbers helper is positioned over the hole at the bottom of the bowl and pushed up and down several times to burp the clog through. If you have not positioned the rubber on the helper right some water may splash on the surrounding area.
The proper way to use a plunger is to make sure there is only enough water to cover the plunger cup. Use petroleum jelly on the rim of the cup for a tight fit. Insert the plunger at an angle so no air is trapped under the cup. 1 to 20 forceful strokes, holding the plunger upright and pumping vigorously. Repeat several times to burp the entire clog through.
