Can the family use another bathroom during the backup?
More water entering the system can push additional sewage into the house. Stop using plumbing fixtures until a septic company evaluates the cause.

Mopping misses liquid beneath floor edges and cannot restore sewage-soaked porous layers. Wet layers still need evaluation.

Yes. Continued water use can drive more sewage into the house until the system is addressed.
Does septic backup in house cleanup include new flooring?
Rebuilding is quoted after contaminated materials are removed and drying is complete.
