I don't know where you live or what the legalities are. This is one problem. Then your going through an agent, bad news.
Go see the landlord, the agent seems to have a bad rep with him/her. Throw yourself at his feet and tell him you need the apartment, the hell with the agent. She screwed you so the should void any contract you have with her, case solved there.
Ask the land lord if he'll take you. Your probably paying an agents fee to start with.

You very own the employ till the two a) the employ contract ends, or b) the eviction is executed interior the courts. one way or the different, the owner will convey at the same time the funds he's due. He can drag you into courtroom to convey at the same time if mandatory. The courtroom will garnish your wages till the funds is paid.
