Are there not rental houses available to you? Around here often times you can rent a house for close to the same amount as an apartment.
If moving is not an option, I agree with what Donna posted to you. Normally I would be firmly against debarking, especially as a convenience for the pet owner. But, it does sound like short of moving, you've done everything you can.
I've known of only one other case where I thought debarking was kind of okay. This was an elderly lady with an older poodle, she had since the dog was a pup. The lady was going into a nursing home that would allow her dog but only if the dog never barked. It would have been devastating to separate the owner and dog at that point.
