I propose that Congress has a third legal option - to form a special (select) committee. They could hire professional prosecutors and staff (detectives and technical specialists) and use the subpoena power of Congress to uncover and publicize evidence.

Well, a select committee would be more of the same, although it might raise the visibility somewhat. It still would not give Congress the ability to prosecute anyone, and the only tool they would have to get people to cooperate is the threat of a contempt finding - which they have already proven is an empty threat. They might be able to bring more resources to bear, but still would not be able to force the IRS or the administration to cooperate, nor could they force the DOJ to prosecute if they find evidence of criminal acts/

Agreed.

At least they should sic a pack of investigators on their trail for every violation that they commit. Let the baying of the wolves haunt their dreams. Something beats nothing, and something should be done.

With enough resources, someone will be caught.

Like Pol Pot said, if you kill one monkey, you scare ten.
