Barking Problems

Hello!
I am having problems with my 4 year old lab mix when it comes to the problem of barking and lunging. She's a sweet girl, but when we have her on her leash, she will bark and lunge at any large, nosiy trucks,cats, rabbits, joggers, bicyclists (young or old) or other dogs on leashes or dogs in their own backyards.
She becomes frenzied, and I'm getting to the point where I'm afraid she will hurt someone, although she's so gentle at home and at the dog park.
I'm thinking about a shock collar, even though I'm scared it will hurt her. Does anyone have any suggestions or can you tell me a little more about shock collars?
Thank you for your help.
