Default '07 Mazda 3, problems at the pump.

I've taken my car to the shop three times. I put a new gas cap on and replaced the 02 sensor like the codes said. My car continues to read the same two codes.
EVERYYYYYYYYYYYY time I fill up, whether it's all the way up or just a little, my car won't start. I have to pump the gas pedal and it takes several tries. Once it starts it shakes and sometimes dies. Even when I get it in drive it shakes or dies. It's progressively getting worse.
Not to play the pity card but I don't have a guy around to help figure this out and I'm at a loss when it comes to cars. PLEASE HELP. Ugh.

Please tell us the codes and description if you have it.
Mileage?
Possibly Purge Valve?

Without knowing the codes and/or mileage ....sounds like a couple of options. Bad plugs, coil, maf sensor, fuel pump. Sounds like not enough gas is getting to the engine during start up
