Need a Better Bottle...

I have using the Playtex Ventaire Bottle Stage 1 and they seem to get "clogged" very easily. My 2 months takes FOREVER to drink a bottle. I tried switching to Stage 2, but she is drowning in formula...literally! I've also tried the Soothie brand of bottles, Stage 1 and these also leak everywhere. Does anyone have any suggestions for a better bottle, or ideas to make feeding easier and not so messy! ALSO, when do you start ceral feedings, I forgot from my first daughter!
