You may have a hard time getting transmission fluid replaced/flushed via a dealership. Since it's not a recommended service, virtually no Toyota/Lexus dealership performs transmission fluid flush. They do offer drain and fill but that takes care off a minute amount compared to the quantify in the transmission.

I've been been draining and filling every week for almost two months now and the fluid has just started to show a shade of red but still very dark.

This is true. Not sure what type of fluid you’re using, I recently heard from The Car Care Nut on YouTube that Toyota ATF WS is naturally darker so it can be deceiving when trying to change it out. Total capacity is 6.9 quarts, a regular drain and fill takes 1.8 quarts out.
