OK, use actual penetrating oil, not WD-40.
If a correctly fitting socket is just rounding it off further, I'd suggest using a pipe wrench ("Stillson") which you can get at any plumbing shop or B&Q. This will grip tighter as you heave on it. A length of scaffold pole or similar is invaluable as a cheater bar to increase the torque.
Irwin bolt grips work well, but aren't cheap and you'll likely have to order them.
You might get lucky with a big pair of mole grips. I wouldn't bother, you'll be as likely to chew it up further. Filing flats and using a smaller spanner is also unlikely to work if the correct one rounded. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.
