I think you meant that you use 20 Mule Team Borax to RAISE the pH. It won't lower the pH.
Baking soda is used to raise the Total Alkalinity (TA).
To raise the CYA you use Cyanuric Acid aka stabilizer or conditioner. You get it from a pool store or big box store that sells pool chemicals. There is no grocery store equivalent for this chemical.
