Are you trying to go back to your natural color? Instead of bleaching out the dark, try a product called color oops. It removes the dye without the damage of bleach. You might need to do it a couple times to remove really dark color and it won't take you completely back to your natural color but it will help a lot.
Be warned though, the stuff stinks, a lot and the smell will linger for a week or so but its worth it. You have to really follow the directions, especially the part about rinsing. If you do not rinse enough, the hair can darken back up. Once you think you've rinsed enough, rinse some more. Run your hot water tank empty if you have to.
You can see videos of dye removing with color oops on youtube
