Why is your shower flooded and water leaking from under your mobile home?
Well obviously you have a leak somewhere. -If you can see water coming from any where near the back of the shower, that would be a help. If no leakage is visible, I would remove the wall panel at back of shower, to expose shower control and pipes. Once you see where the leak is, shut off main water. (most mobiles do not have a separate shut off for bath/shower.) -When you see the leak, call an experienced handyman or plumber to repair. Water leaks are very common in older mobiles with either copper or PolyB plumbing. I ALWAYS repair or replace with PEX. Usually I cut out the entire length of suspect pipe and replace it with PEXpipe and 2 'Sharkbite' couplings. Post again with the results please, or even if you need more advice.
