I have a hash I need sorted..TWICE. I asked this in the chat box but that got confusing, so here's the problem.

I need to sort a hash by values (the values are all whole numbers) but in some cases, many of the hash keys have the same value. How can I then sort these alphabetically?

Unsorted 

rock   => 3
candle => 25
bug    => 3
rain   => 12
dust   => 17
spider => 12

Using foreach (sort {$saved_key{$b} cmp $saved_key{$a}} keys %saved_key) 
candle => 25
dust   => 17
spider => 12
rain   => 12
rock   => 3
bug    => 3

Desired: 
candle => 25
dust   => 17
rain   => 12
spider => 12
bug    => 3
rock   => 3

If two or more values are the same, I want to sort them alphanumerically. Any help would be much appreciated.
