Is she still napping? A few months ago, my son, at around 3, would not go to sleep. He was like a crazy demon, like a child I did not know- throwing things, laughing maniacally (?sp) and crazed. I could not control him. He would not stay in time out, so I would do time in, where I held him in the rocking chair and then put him back in bed.
That helped, but what really helped was getting rid of his nap. He just was not tired. Now he is exhausted at night and falls asleep pretty quickly. I feel for you- it is really hard. I miss the nap, but am so grateful he goes down easily now.
