MY FOUR YEAR OLD WITH SO MAJOR PROBLEM

I HAVE A 4 YEAR OLD AND A FOUR MONTH OLD SHE HAS QUIT BEING MEAN TO THE BABY, HOWEVER REFUSES TO LISTEN WHEN HER FATHER AND I ASK HER TO DO ANYTHING SUCH AS RUNNING INTO THE DRIVEWAY WHEN SOMEONE IS LEAVING, WHEN IT IS BATH TIME, NOT TO ANSWER THE PHONE AND SO ON. TO ADD TO ALL OF THIS WHEN WE PUNISH HER SHE SLAMS HER BEDROOM DOOR AND SCREAMS OR SHE WILL HIT HER FATHER. SOMETIMES FOR WHAT APPEARS NO REASON TO ME SHE BITES HERSELF ON THE FOR ARMS AND LEAVES NOTICABLE MARKS FOR DAYS. SHE ALSO HAS NO EXPLAINATION FOR DOING THIS WHEN ASKED. SHE IS A VERY INTELLIGENT CHILD SHE JUST SEEMS TO BE MORE OUT OF CONTROL EVERYTIME WE PUNISH HER. WE HAVE SENT HER TO HER ROOM, TO TIME OUT AND TAKEN THINGS AWAY NOTHING SEEMS TO WORK.PLEASE HELP GIVE ME SOME NEW WAYS TO HANDLE THE TANTRUMS AND DISOBEDIENCE
