Care of Helleborus Niger

Wheaton, IL(Zone 5b)

I received a beautiful Christmas rose as a gift a few weeks ago. It had many blooms at the time. Since then, the leaves have turned yellow and the flowers are drooping. Since it came from a local grocery store, I believe it was overwatered. I took it out of its pot, roots were brown, and tried to repot in some fresh potting soil. I also sprayed it with Spray-N-Grow, a micronutrient. Only a few leaves in the center are still green. Should I clip all the flowers off now? I have taken the very wilted ones off. Any suggestions on how I can save this plant would be greatly appreciated.
