I washed my friend's dog yesterday with my house's backyard garden hose because the dog decided that he wanted to try and lap up some food that had red ants all over it, while I was picking up his fecals. The red ants were biting him, and I didn't want the dog to go home with red ants as his buddies. After i washed him, I thought that I had turned the garden hose all the way off. That same night everything looked OK. The next day I got up and got ready for work and everything seemed normal,but when I came home from work everyone in my household was freaking out. They told me that the back yard was soaked to the bone, and that the basement of my house had flooded. We were already experiencing problems with mold, and now things just got worse. I have allergies, and asthma, and I have "Pargo" Flooring in my basement, and I don't have the money to remodel it or pull it up. Is there some way I can pull up the floor, without majorly damaging it, to get the excess water from under the floor? Please, Please, Please help me.

Drill a hole in one corner, lower in a hose.  Attach hose to sump pump.
