Try plyometrics for a while (lots of jumping push ups) and forget the barbell and work with the dumbells.
Then after around 2-4 weeks, go back to the barbell. Maybe you wont push as heavy the first time but the second or third time you'll probably be stronger.
Give it a try!

For me I always have to do somesort of flys with my chest day. I find if i dont do incline,decline or flat flys that I dont breakdown my chest muscles enough and they never used to get sore. Once I added flys my chest is usually sore for 2 days and my strength has exploded. Also do what philia says, you have to mix dumbbells in there. I know it may hurt your ego to not feel huge like lifting the barbel but it will definatley get you results.
