So she began putting a bark-collar on him before training when he was to wait in his crate and he laid there like a gentleman and didn't even peep until she came to leash him and work. He was much calmer and stable dog with the bark collar on and it kept him under control. She took the bark collar off when he exited the crate. I think the bark collar would work for you. A lady I see at the dog park says her dog barks all the way to the park and it can be quite distracting... I don't see why a bark collar wouldn't work. They learn very quickly to be quiet and can control whether they get a correction or not.

With the bark collar she settles and actually rests and chews on her kongs in there rather than bark at everything that moves (or not). I would agree that a bark collar would work for you.
