Default Attack Mode

Oscar, now 4 months old gets really playful in the evening, his playing eventually turns in to very rough inappropriate behavior consisting of ripping up his pp pads, going at the cat and pinning her down. This type of play was alright when he was a wee bit younger but he is much stronger now. He will also bit hands, feet, legs, you name it, very hard. We discipline him as gently as possible, which is by grabbing his scruff. I know Mama Dogs do this to their pups to get their attention. After I release him, he turns around and lunges to bite me. Anyone have an answer on how to stop or deter this behavior I would greatly appreciate it. Otherwise, he is a sweet, loving pup. I realize he may still be teething, but my hand is not a teething toy.
Much love,
Oscar and Diane
