A chemical stripper is one way. Simply sanding off the wax and stain so you restain and finish is another. Be care with the chemical stripper though, it might soak into the wood and make refinishing a hassle. If all you want to do is refinish the floor without re-staining use the Basic Coatings no sanding method, or find someone who uses that method; everything is done in one day with no dust.

Why should you avoid using so much wax on flooring?
Too much wax can make the floor feel rather sticky.
Why should you avoid from using too much wax on flooring?
You shouldn't use wax unless the floor was finished with wax. More than likely, the floor has oil or water based polyurethane on it. Why you shouldn't use wax on any polyurethane finish, it prevents the finish from adhering if you ever have the floor re-coated with poly. You will have to spend around two dollars a foot to sand them rather than .50 or .75 cents a foot to re-coat the floor. Prices depend on where you live.
