For some reason the tub faucet won't unscrew counter clockwise as suggested by a Home Depot member of staff. I also looked for any screws attaching the faucet and found none. The tub already have a slow drain and when the shower head runs, hose down comes out of both the shower head and faucet even when the pin is pulled on the faucet. This make water build up twice as impossible.

there is usually a tiny set screw on the bottom side of the faucet, you really enjoy to look for it, it unfastens near an Allen key.
I use a ten inch piece of coat hanger chain bent into a hook shape small enough to fit down the drain, insert it and verbs, it's remarkable how much hair get stuck.
and bend the top end, freshly in travel case you drop it, it wont go down the drain.
as far as the sea coming out of both parts, usually its because you have low pressure. try a pressure floating tub set, they work great.
I have long mane, so it's a monthly thing for me to do.
Answers: I cant think of anything else that would be holding it. I would suggest a bigger wrench. not sure what you are using presently. If you dont have a bigger one possibly a piece of pipe that will fit over the handle to impart more leverage. It will eventually have to come sour either at the spout or the pipe out of the wall.
That slow drain problem could be spike. check low in the drain, some times it will harvest. use some type of hook to beable to reach downa pious 6 to 8 inches and see if you fish some hair out of nearby
