Ranch Style Home Needs New Flooring (slab)

Purchased a home back in 2007. It was built in the 70's. The living & dining rooms connect forming an "L". Recently the flooring (laminate) is starting to buckle. Looks like the previous owner did not put down a moisture barrier between the concrete subfloor and the laminate. The living room was previously sunken and raised with 2 by 4(s) and plywood to match the level of the dining room. This floor is starting to sink and the plywood has dry rot. What is the best way to remedy this disaster. Put down a moisture barrier or have the concrete sealed....or both. Really need some sound advice on this one. (Levitt Home - Bowie MD)
