how do you clear a flooded engine?

Hi all,

Whats the best method for clearing out a flooded engine?

The bike is a husqvarna wr 125 2 stroke.

Left the fuel tap on accidently when bringing it home in the back of the van, and now wont start.

I took the spark plug out last night and kicked it over a good few times, started but died after 5 secs or so, still sounding flooded.

Should i lay my bike down on its side to try clear out the carb? or do i need to fully remove my carb and check to see if the float is operating correctly?
