should i get my own realtor since i made an offer on a house with no realtor but agent still wants 6%

hi everyone this is a follow up to my previous question i am thinking that if i have to pay this realtor that is representing the seller 6 percent i might as well get my own realtor to represent me.  mainly because the sellers realtor is trying to get me to pay all of the closing costs.  i purchased homes in nevada california and florida and it is usually the seller who pays them but maybe alabama is different?  i am thinking that if i get my own realtor to represent me maybe they could negotiate better terms.  i was a little hesitant to do this as the sellers realtor wants 6 percent and i don't want to have to pay another 3 percent to my own realtor.  Do you think i have to worry about this or is the commission for the entire transaction capped at 6 percent?   Thanks for any info.
