I bought that bark repeller on amazon for 14 bucks and works amazing. They want at least 25 in other mail order or brick/mortar venues. It is just a high pitched sound that only dogs hear and in no way really harms them. They just don't like it and stop barking.

You are going to say, all well and good, but what about when you are gone.. I just saw a bark activated one in one of the little catalogs I get in the mail. I can't remember which one, but it could be googled. You just mount it low on the wall in which ever room. (I'd get multiple ones) and whenever your kid barks it would emit the noise. Should shush pretty quick.

Ours worked so well that we really didn't have to use it but a couple of times. Now we just show them the little box and that is it. Even the big dog. We could take the batteries out...LOL We show them the box, say hush and they give us that look like, uh..okay. The maltipoo is the alert dog and I still give him praise and thanks when he barks at the door. I never want him to stop alerting to intruders. But he knows to quiet after I say thank you, good boy.....

good luck
