The visible puddle may show only part of the wet area because basement finishes, stored contents, joists, and crawl space soil hold hidden moisture.

A blocked drain may need a plumbing contractor. Sewage cleanup also needs protective handling, removal of contaminated porous materials and surface cleaning.
