Default biting, growling and barking

I can't get my puppy to stop chewing everything and latching onto everyone he meets. Every time he wakes up from a nap, he's really wound up and excited. Then he starts destroying whatever he can get to. I've tried saying "NO BITE", Yelping like him, startling him with pennies in a bottle, spraying vinegar on my hands and feet because the smell repells him, replacing whatever he's not supposed to be chewing on with a chew toy... he just gets annoyed and has recently started to bark.The only way I can get him to calm down is to put him in my room and shut the door for a while. He'll stop and I'll come in to find him hanging out under the foot of my bed, minding his business. He doesn't play with toys for more than a few seconds, and he's always running (and I mean, like a bat out of hell) around the house. He tires himself out pretty easily, because he's a little young and hasn't had all his shots yet, I don't want to take him outside to play. What can I do?
