I'm surprised that you haven't gone back to the bike shop where you bought your bike and told them about your pain issues with fit. That is a logical starting point. They can recommend a fitter or do a more thorough fitting themselves perhaps at a discount.

We don't know what city you are in, so we can't help you choose a fitter.

It's really up to you to make a decision at this point. Right now, you are over-analyzing.
