Keep in mind that "shock" is a verb--something you do TO your pool, not a product you put in it. Shock means simply to raise the chlorine level. what product you do that with is up to you. That being said, your one pound bags of "shock" are either cal-hypo or dichlor. Can you look at the ingredient list and tell me which it is? The reason it's important is that dichlor will also raise your CYA, which you don't want to do.

If you will raise your chlorine to 15 ppm, whether you do that with bleach or cal-hypo and keep it there by testing and adding more 2-3 times daily to get back up to 15 ppm, until the pool turns cloudy blue, and run your pump/filter 24/7 during the process and backwashing the filter as the pressure indicates, your pool will clear. The trick is to get the chlorine up and KEEP IT UP there. If you let it yo-yo up and down it will take a lot longer to clear up. THe more consistent you are about keeping it at or above 15, the quicker it'll clear up.
