Sounds like a bit of a pain that !
If it still leaks i suggest draining the fluid and starting afresh with things take off the sump gasket etc and clean everything back up well ( finally using metholated spirits or something to give a grease free surface) I have a spare auto sump gasket if needs be.
If your using 'gasket dressing' put it all back together and torque the bolts up to the correct setting and leave overnight before filling it up with fluid to give it chance to set properly. make sure the gasket is seated correctly. Same goes for the dip stick 'seal'
