If your pH is below 7.0, that is your most critical issue. Get it above 7.0 ASAP!
Mix a cup of pool water with a cup of distilled water and use that to run the CYA test again but multiply your results by 2. See what reading you get then.
Brush the pool while the chlorine is high and run your pump 24/7. If there is debris you can scoop out, do so. Keep dumping in the bleach. Especially with that high CYA, you will need high chlorine levels to kill the algae.
What size pump do you have? What kind and size filter?
Welcome to the Pool Forum, by the way! Good decision to buy the kit! You'll need it with a high CYA like you have.
