If its fizzing it has not finished yet, the bung in the bottle will not be tight enough and gas is escaping.

ok thank you will try putting some glad wrap with a small hole in it to make it a tighter fit.

And if you bottle it while it is still fermenting, (fizzing) it will continue to ferment in the bottle and next thing the bottle will burst or the cork will pop out and you'll have dandelion wine everywhere.
If the airlock isn't fitting tight enough, you can try putting sealing wax around the rubber bung where the airlock goes into it.
