What can I use to change the color of the grout in the bathroom. It looks dirty and I’m so embarrassed- bleach doesn’t seem to be working

Get a professional to clean it and then you can attempt to maintain it. They will also seal the grout which helps but proper maintenance also helps.
You can paint grout but that is a laborious undertaking as you can imagine.
When I tiled I made it a point to get grout that somewhat blended with the tiles - white grout is hard to maintain.
They do make grout brushes including electrical brushes which make upkeep easier. I have tile on my balcony and some of the grout lines are showing dirt from when the rain washed dirt into them. I tested a small area with an old electric toothbrush and they cleaned up amazingly. I am not about to use a toothbrush so I will hire a professional and then use a long handled grout brush with some grout cleaner although in researching there are "home" cleaning agents that are supposed to be effective as well.

When the kids are not home, place bleach in a spritz bottle.
Wear clothes that can get bleached.
Spritz bleach on entire area.
Allow to sit for 3 hours.
Empty spritz bottle and wash out very well!!
After a few hours, scrub, scrub, scrub with a brush and some bathroom cleaner.
Be aware that you may be seeing the a black space and not black mildew. The grout could very well have worn out and you're really seeing the bare bones that need to be re-grouted.
