I'm stuck I and I don't want to start from 0.
So I was doing the ''Siren's deception'' quest and I got into the farm house at 11pm game time, then I saw ''Faustina'' and after she told me what she wanted me to do the game won't let me dialogue with her, then I killed her and now I can't get out of the house, even with the key she had. Now i'm stuck on both save files in the same place, what can I do? I don't want to start from 0.

If I remember correctly there should be a couple of others there that join in the fight. It's different if you're playing as a man or a woman dialogue wise. But you should be speaking with Faustina until she calls the others to start the fight.

If you just killed her then you haven't triggered the part that progresses the plotline.

However the UESP wiki does say this:

Note: due to a bug, the player may become locked in the farmhouse with no means of escaping. Thus it is advisable to save before entering the farmhouse if playing on a console.

So if you're playing on a console it looks as if there's no way out.

There are some suggestions I found if the problem persists. One assumes you can actually get out of the house so that might not be so good. But if you load an earlier save the second might help.

No one is in the house!
When i went in the door locked behind me and i couldnt enter the basement and i was trapped with no1 with me. I am using a ps3 with the shivering isles expansion pack please help!

I had a similar problem on the PS3 GOTY edition. I wonder if it has to do with a Mythic Dawn Agent attack at the flowing bowl. When the agent attacked, Signy ran outside and would not return to the inn. When I went outside though, she did approach me and advanced the quest. Then I went to the farm house, got the stage 50 entry, then waited until after 11pm. The door was unlocked and I went in. At the point, I was locked inside the house with no one around. I tried waiting for 24 hours but no one ever showed up. I loaded an earlier save, went back to the inn after the initial encounter, and waited for varying lengths. It seems Signy and Faustina never leave the inn, thus making it impossible to advance the quest. Since this is the second report, I'm adding an entry to the bugs section.

Through some trial and error, I discovered that it is still possible to complete the quest. Here's a brief walkthrough:

Wait until after 10:00PM and go back to the flowing bowl
Faustina will now have the correct dialog, as if she were in the farmhouse
Goad her and Signy into attacking you
Warning: the guards may consider attacking them a crime. I'm not sure if it's a "bug", or if I accidentally struck someone else in the fight, although I definitely waited until they had gone on the offensive. It's best to just use reflect damage and/or a shield spell and wait for the others in the inn to kill them
Go back to the farmhouse, but save before entering just in case
Now, the Argonian should be there. Kill her and the quest should advance normally from this point

Are you on a xbox etc?
If pc use use console commands to progress quest.
If console and you are not with the Dark Brotherhood, you might have a chance.
Are there any guards in the farmhouse? If yes, kill them and go to sleep.
Accept offer to kill Rufio and quickly follow the quest giver out.
All I can think of.

On pc you should be able to use the unlock command to open the door. Or you can look up the item code and use player.additem itemcodehere 1
