+1 to coding bootcamp. I attended one and was employed within a month of graduating. I think a CS degree is important, so I'm getting one as a part-time student now, while employed full time as a developer.
Note, skylark said "high profile coding bootcamp." This is important! Properly vet any schools you apply to. Chances are if the application and acceptance process is trivial, the bootcamp may not be "hard" enough, if that makes any sense.
