If plunging and flushing with a few buckets of water don't clear the clog, then you will have to get an auger and hopefully you can avoid the next step of an even longer auger from the vents on the roof or taking off the toilet.

Using a bucket(s) instead of flushing may afford you more water power. Got one of these?
