That very same thing happened to me one year! Not a lot of fun, but actually pretty easy to clean up. Lots of chlorine (bleach) will do the trick. Scoop out as much of the debris as you can and run your pump 24/7, cleaning the filter as often as is needed. If you can post a current set of water testing results taken with a drops-based kit, someone here can better advise you. If you don't have a kit, let a pool store test for you but just don't buy all the stuff they will try and sell you. The kit we recommend is the Taylor K-2006 or 2006C which is the same kit with larger quantities of some of the most used reagents. Click on the Amazon link in my signature below to find it.
