Oh no! Don't try plucking! It's painful already when I do it on my eyebrows, so imagine on the pubic area, which is even MORE sensitive!
Why don't you try waxing instead? Much cleaner and less painful than plucking and would last you longer than shaving.
Now, I can give you an advise for that you don't get bumps after you shave nor you get any itchiness. Put lots of shaving cream in the pubic area. Then, shave where the hair flows, that means shave downward or towards the legs. Before you shave, put water on the blade to make it sharper and wash it often. To have more guidance, type "how to shave vagina" on http://www.youtube.com/ to have a better illustration of what I told you.

i have the same problem
to keep it clean use anti bacterial wipes for skin
plucking? i have thought about that scenario but then gain it would take quite a while to get them all out
maybe try waxing???
The little lumps are just in grown hair follicles so it's nothing to worry about
