Answers:
How did you dry it? If you machine dry wool it shrinks like crazy. Are you sure it's wool?
You can,t.
Stick it in the tumble dryer!
You can't. You can't wash wool easily, so you've probably destoyed it!
I can suggest this, wash your coat again with a much higher temp than before. Once you have done this, lay the coat on a towel, roll the coat in the towel and leave like this for 1 hr. then lay the coat flat on a dry towel. The main thing is that you don´t hang it up,as if you do it will become bigger. Then put it in the tumble dryer,on a warm program, keep checking on it, till you get it back to the size you require, also It would be better if the coat is dry or almost dry before you pop it into the dryer
