This is a good question. 

Umbridge said she was monitoring all the Floo network fireplaces in 
Hogwarts, which meant they couldn't use any fireplace in Hogwarts.

But they might've been able to Hagrid's...but here's the Big IF:

IF  Hagrid was connected to the Floo Networ.
IF  Hagrid's fireplace wasn't also being watched.

Or they could've gone to Hogsmeade and used a fireplace there. 

But when one is upset, who thinks perfectly straight?  None of 
Harry's friends had any better ideas, either.

They flew instead of Floo.
