Default Help bleeding brakes

ok well i cant seem to get all the air out of the master cylinder. I had replaced it along with calipers. I bench bled the master the way it said to with the instructions i got with it which was with 2 plugs. That didnt work at all. i ended up going to the brake shop and had them presure bleed everything and wow what a difference. the problem now is one of my front brake lines broke. i bent a new line and got it in with no leaks but i need to bleed the master again. I have a mityvac that i got to bleed my clutch system, worked great on that. doesnt seem to work for me on the brakes unless im doing it wrong. is there anything i can buy to bleed the brakes like a shop does, will the mityvac work or should i go back to the shop? thanks for any advice im really not liking my brakes right now.
