Kristin, until you get the fence finished, buy some pepper spray and make sure the neighbors know that you have it and will use it.
One of my former neighbors let her dogs attack other dogs until everyone started carrying pepper spray and/or a baseball bat. Once she knew that it was HER dog that would get hurt she straightened up a little.
Yell at the dog too. Mostly to scare the owners (You come over here and you are getting pepper spray up your nose! to give the owners a little fear).

Roll wire fencing from the farm store is pretty cheap and sturdy. We've put up split-rail fencing and stapled the black powder coated roll wire to the back. It looks good and is cheap.
If you use the regular iron fence posts, it's not pretty, but it works. You can fence a huge area for $100.
If you want a more visible barrier for awhile (so the other dog figures out the fence is there and doesn't hit it too hard), you can put up the green or orange plastic snow barrier fencing behind the roll wire.
Using 4x or 6x cedar posts with the 10' or 12' coated wire roll is how my buddy keeps his elk in and dogs out, so it can be very sturdy and permanent.
Lauren,I agree with the pepperspray for the dog and the notification of to the owners...Too bad though..as I feel the owners should feel the effect...not the dog as it is very apparent that they are not responsible dog owners.I also agree with all that Thomas had stated..although it may be hard to understand to most.The simple fencing that Stephan had mentioned is quite easy and cheap...
