A data recovery company otherwise every operation you do can add further damage.
if you wont do that, try taking a disc image with some tool or software that can handle bad sectors. but advisable to seek professional help.

My crystal ball is down for repairs. What hardware device do you own?

My advice still stands, as I am going to hazard a guess that the tools are not industry tools, aren't suitable, or you don't quite understand how to use them or the configuration is off. ..and the drive needs some professional care that an experienced DR Lab can offer.
