Default Funky fireplace

My fireplace was apparently built incorrectly. I think that the box is way too
big for the size of the chimney, but no one is sure. Have tried various
remedies, from extending the squirrel cage, to lowering the height of the box
in front, but still smoke enters the room. Can I use vented gas logs in this
or must I go with ventless?

TIA
