I have had a clutch 'come back' after adding fluid and waiting ..several hours and pumping the pedal some. gernally ...to just add fluid after it's been low , then pumping on the pedal.. if it doesn't start acting right .. it sure doesn't help to pump away. try waiting .. though I suspect either or both of your clutch hyd cylinders are pretty toast-y.
