I have had enough

Two dds. They will not do as they are told. Short of physically manhandling them into their rooms they won't go to bed. They was up after about 2 hours of being told to but refuse to use either warm/hot water or washing up liquid so I have to rewash everything. I've removed all Internet access to see if their attitudes improve. Any kind of gaming and watching nonsense on YouTube has a negative effect. I am the worlds worst mother obviously but I have had enough as their behaviour is negatively impacting their brother's behaviour and turning him into an aggressive badly behaved little boy. He is only 5 and copies whatever they do.
What else can I do? I've tried reward systems, house rules, rotas for doing the dishes, they just refuse and no amount of consequences has any effect. I'm exhausted by them all.
