I'd just open up the plumbing and clear it out. Since you have used chemicals, make sure you flush lots of water through if you can, and wear gloves. There should be a drain under the trap, so open that to let water out first. Have rags on hand, and be prepared for nasty smells.

One issue that I have ran into was hair getting caught on the sink drain plug, and that really slowing it down. You may just have a problem there, and not further down. You can usually remove that by looking behind the downpipe, and finding where it connects. There is a fitting you can unscrew and pop out the lever, then you can lift the drain plug out.

Here is the assembly:
