I plan on leaving chaos covenant, since I got to +2 already. WHich covenant should i join?

Pretty much what blkfish92 said, but I would recommend going to the Darkmoon covenant and get over with the 10 souvenir of reprisal needed for +1 and the Darkmoon Talisman. 

@JGarret - Oswald of Carim, the NPC at the top of Undead Parish, where you rang the bell, sells Purging Stones for 3K instead of the 6K the undead female merchant is ripping you off. There's no curse prevention items, there's just items to give you better curse resistance, like the Cursebite Ring at the Valley of Drakes/New Londo ruins interlink (you need either the Master Key or the New Londo Ruins key to access that area), and some armours, like Dusk of Oolacile armour (in Darkroot Basin, you'll need to defeat the Hydra and a giant yellow crystal golem for her set to appear) give you a much higher curse resistance (over 150).

There's also a spell that removes curses, but needs 16 Intelligence and you'll need to reach Ingward on New Londo ruins, which will have you traversing through a horde of ghosts which will require a Transient Curse item which are sold by the undead female merchant for 4K. I don't recommend this course of action, especially being cursed.
