System needs to be burped, can take several or more times to get all the air out.

Follow these instructions

A flush would be a fluid exchange, take out old, put in new.

Burping is a procedure to get the trapped air out of the system.

No...

After you flush you need to burp.

you replaced the tstat and sensor, so why can't you just follow the procedure outlined inthe link . It is not recommended you drive the car with it getting hot, you'll fry the motor..

It's really a simple procedure. If you can read directions, you can do it. There's no reason to pay someone.

As others said, just be patient. Those shop hours will add up because I'm sure a shop will want to check everything first.
