That situation: is way too dangerous to deal with on-line and should be given the attention of an obstetrician/gynecologist first hand. Recommend you see one very soon.

Need further testing: There could be a few things going on. One possibility is a miscarriage. You need to have a quantitative blood Hcg test done to see if you have a viable pregnancy level and repeat it a few days later to see if it's doubling like it should. If its not then that confirms the miscarriage.You may also need an ultrasound to check for things like a subchorionic hemorrhage or other cause for the bleeding.
