If the FIR is already registered then there is no point in filing petition u0s 156(3)crpc.
If not then yes definitely file petition under this section and also ask for the regular monitoring of the case by the Magistrate which has got power to do so. Mere filing of RCR is no tool to escape the criminal liability u/s 498A and other related offences..

No, if even the FIR is registered, a complaint u/s 156(3) Cr.P.C. can be filed if no investigation is made thereof.
You may also file a complaint case u/s. 200 Cr.P.C.

The first thing you have to do is to file a complaint before the magistrate under domestic violence Act. For filing this, police cooperation is not required. Most of your grievances, spelled out above, would be resolved in this petition. After that, for persuing 498-A complaint, take appropriate steps suggested by my above friends.
