Answers:
If you tried everything,maybe next is a plumber.


Snake your drains.
Call a plumber, they may need to use a snake to unpug the drains, if that is the problem.
use mr.muscle!are you hairy?
Liquid Plumber pour it down the drain will help
Maybe there dirt in it and call a plumber
It's called a clog.

Somewhere in your line, or even in the street sewer, there is a partial blockage.

Sounds like you'll have to call a plumber to scope and snake your drains. If worst comes to worst, you'll have to pay for an excavator to come in and rip-up your yard so the plumber can replace broken pipes.

As for the fun part, the bubbling toilet...that would tend to confirm the clog/break is in your main line.
It sounds like a clog in the line. You could try this before you call the plumber. Pour one cup rock salt and one cup vinegar down EVERY drain. Add 3 cups boiling water. Allow to sit for an hour, and then flush with cold water.

If this doesn't work this time, do this once a month after you get the clog fixed, and you won't have further problems.
It sounds like your main drain is almost completely clogged. For clogs that are more localized to a specific area of the house such as just the toilet or just the tub, normally those you can attempt to unclog yourself. However, when the main drainage line gets clogged, that is a good time to call in the plumber and get professional help. Your drain is beyond the point of putting chemicals down it. Call a plumber.

The main drain can clog for a number of reasons. It could be and old metal pipe that finally corroded and collapsed. Or tree roots could be pushing their way into the drain or a number of other things. I recommend you start saving back money because the repair may not be cheap.
sounds like u hve a blockage at the stack , Or between connection of shower waste and stack
if bath & shower wastes r combined then remove bath trap to gain access to waste pipe to clear out blockage
Hire a sanisnake, or buy cheap rodding tool
pour some bleach it will breack up anything in the drain. no joke.
