She will still bite me throughout the day and once we are home but when she gets home and spends time with him, the entire time consists of my husband telling her "NO BITES! NO BITES! NO BITES!" It's really annoying. It's not just when he walks in the door or anything...its constant.
She has TONS of toys to chew on and I rotate them so she doesn't get sick of them. We're trying to put her in her crate each time she bites now, but it's just exhausting. She really is a good girl, but this biting is obnoxious.
We also give her a toy when she bites too so she knows to bite that instead. It still happens a lot though.

It sounds to me like she is very young and was taken from her mother before she was socialized and taught proper puppy etiquette..
Dogs do not understand human language, you need to speak to them in their language. Start by using a low growl, if she doesn't respond to that then snap at her with a quick pinch to the neck and making a snapping sound like her mother would.
Time outs make no sense to dogs. By the time you put them in the crate they have no clue why you are doing. The correction has to be instantanious.
