The pressure point of the thigh is on the inside, near where the leg joins the hip. This is where you push to stop bleeding in the lower leg.

What should you do if the combination of extremety elevation and direct pressure do not control the bleeding?

At that point, if you have not yet tied a tourniquet, tie one above the wound making sure it is tight, keep it at an elevation and keep adding direct pressure to the wound. Not much else can be done to stop bleeding. If you can see the blood vessels themselves you can use a cautery if you have one (It essentially uses heat to close off the blood vessel).
