Are my teeth beyond repair? They are a yucky yellowy tinged white, (rather than the normal creme/snow white colour), my gums bleed and are a lighter colour than they should be and they look horrible. If I start brushing, flossing and using mouth wash two or three times a day, will this fix the problem after a few months, or do I need to visit the dentist?

"Oncebitten" is right, your teeth are salvageable but you need to see a dentist soon, gingivitis is only the beginning of gum disease, if you don't get busy on saving your gums, your teeth will fall out long before they rot. also gum disease effects far more then just your teeth, it can kill you! your mouth is a warm, wet germ incubator and bleeding, diseased gums give an easy back door through your bodies natural defenses straight into your blood stream. once in your blood these germs can cause blood poisoning, heart disease and organ failure.
