There is a quick thing you could try before you get a bit more involved with your problem.
Gently clamp all 4 flexy hoses (with pipe clamps if you have them ), then try the pedal again,,,,,,if it is by far better than before then you have air still in the system.
If the pedal goes to the floor it is possible that the master cylinder seals are shot.

PS, don't forget to take the pipe clamps off when you are done with them.
