I've been listening to a ton of Devo, Oingo Boingo, and Madness lately. What are some other bands that have a ton of energy, but don't take themselves very seriously?

Talking Heads. I'm assuming you've listened to them, but like Oingo Boingo, their live stuff is better than their studio work.
Speaking as a fan of all three bands mentioned so far, you might want to try Wall of Voodoo. Their earlier stuff is very Devo-esque to me.
Listen to Cardiacs
soft boys/robyn hitchcock

Local band, might be more noisy than you're looking for, but fun spazzy energetic art punk.
