How do I mend a water pipe that is under pressure?

I have water pipe that is under pressure and can not be turned off until fall. It is leaking what can I do to fix it?

There are various collars and some pastes which can be used on leaking pipes.
If you go down the arctic spray route,remember not to run any water whilst doing freezing the pipe.

i have seen, but never tried, in the shops a spray, called arctic spray, pipe freezer, wich temporarily freezes the water in the pipes, so work can be carried out, just a thought, you could always look it up, then ask for advice, on how to use and when etc, good luck.
