Question Clogged Bathtub/ Toilet

Everything else is running just fine. (so far) But sewage (EWWW!) is backing into our tub. Also, when we flush the toilet water runs out from undernieth. I have already tried baking soda/ vinigar, boiling water, a whole mess of drano.
HELP! I don't care if its "natural" at this point, so long as it works!!
(BTW, this is not the first time this has happened to us. We rent, and the house is not up to code, plumbing, wiring, anything. RotoRooter has been out before and told us that the pipes are ROTTING cast iron, and they are catching everything that passes through.)
We are also moving out within the next 1-2 months, so soon it will not be an issue. 3.5 years in this house has been quite enough!!!!!

Thanks for any help!

Call your landlord and get him to send out a plumber asafp!!!!!!! That is SO not your problem but if it is leaking out from the base of teh floor aroudn the toilet the toilet wax seal is gone and it is going to take removing the toilet, cleaning and scraping the area and then putting in a new seal.
