You need to scoop as much of the solids out as you can.
Then you can follow the SLAM Process process to clear up the water, which requires one of the recommended test kits: Test Kits Compared

Please add your pool and equipment details to your signature

Make sure you leave at least 1 foot of water in the entire pool or the liner could be damaged.
