Default Anti-barking device(s) for Chihuahua

I am in need of something to quiet our female Chihuahua. We have another,
larger, dog that is part Pit-Bull and the Chi copied her protection bark and
now barks uncontrollably at even non-threatening folk - like house guests.
The other day she barked at such a guest for more than 30 minutes non-stop,
and every jostling of the front door know elicits a bark and growl.

The Sharper Image has something that is essentially a treat reward system
for desirable behavior; I would prefer something that gives her an immediate
physical response to train the bark out of her. I was told of something that
pinched or shocked her ear.... ? I doubt a muzzle will work (especially as
her nose is tiny).

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Be
