The key fab will lock and unlock all doors except the drivers door and the lock botton in the car on the drivers door will not lock or unlock the drivers door either. How do I fix this problem?

Sounds like the lock actuator in the driver door has failed, probably have to replace the actuator, but first check the fuses for the locks, chevy has a habit of using a fuse for the drivers door that doesnt power the other doors. If the fuses are ok, then its probably the actuator

How do I unlock & open drivers side door, when key & key fab won't work?

Why won't key work in door? Most likely not used? Spray wd-40 in door lock and insert key moving it back and forth in a sawing motion. This will usually free up a sticky lock and you can then turn it. Most lock out companies use a long metal rod. They will pry back the top of the door where it meets the roof and insert a wedge to hold the door slightly ajar and then insert the rod which has a hook to catch the lock and unlock it. A coat hanger unfolded will usually do the trick with a little patience. If not, the only other way is to disassemble the inner door panel ( usually causing damage ) to get the door open
