Using the bag is fine, be sure you can fish it out of the carboy after it's swelling with hops, or if you can but the bag up after you've emptied the beer.
4oz is... a big much, IMO to waste on dry hopping it. I'd say 2oz is fine for an average IPA, unless you really lack hop aroma from a lackluster hop schedule. Save the hops unless you want to burn them anyways.
I wouldn't add any extra yeast.. Thats just wasting yeast, will add a bunch of crap to the beer to not make it clear better.
Dry hop it for however long you want. I'd suggest a week with 2 ounces. Bottle it, and give it 3 weeks before you go wild on it. At 2 weeks, you can open and see whatcha think. It'll only get better.
