each of my two toilets are in separate bathrooms but only about 3 feet from each other. Both toilets are very slow to flush. Yesterday, one toilet almost didn't flush at all and it fills up to the top before it starts bubbling, then it goes down quite slowy. Raw sewage came into one of my showers last night. Before that, I would get standing water in my shower for a few minutes after I turned the water off. It only happened once in the other shower. Here's the kicker: all my sinks throughout the house, drain just fine. I've tried liquid plumber and sulfiric acid products but nothing seems to be working. Could this be a full septic or does it sound like a clogged toilet(s)? (or what?)

If you are on a septic it could be it for sure. Most septic are supposed to be emptied at least once every 3 years. Your drains work because it takes awhile for the lines to fill up. if you know where the tank is in the yard, open the cover and see if the tank is full. It is possible that the in line going into the tank is cloged maybe. I'd call a septic tank pumper to open it and flush the tank. It's about 150 bucks.

that's what it sounds decide directly to me. tremendously if the bathroom has difficulty flushing on wet days. that's whilst the floor water seeps into the septic tank. it must be time to have it pumped.

I've never had a septic tank, but my inlaws swear by Rid X for thiers.
