I wish there was a place where I could go and say " my toes are going numb fix it".... not sure a bike fit would help with this or not.
I just switched to Shimano R260 road shoes (new for 2014). The newer shimano shoes now sport a wider toe box which alleviated my forefoot issues like yourself. I had a pair of Garneau pro team carbon shoes and while the shoe quality and features are impressive the toe box is just too narrow. If your metatarsal compression is too tight you'll get numbness and other related issues.
