Don't be afraid with to use those three hops throughout the process as all will obviously give bitterness but particularly great flavour and aroma. As Schikitar mentioned though, it would be wise to go with Citra for bittering due to the AA content and the amount of IBU's normally required for IIPA. Don't sweat about extra light extract, dme will be fine. I would however throw in a bit of dextrose to boost gravity and fermentability as well as reduce the amount of malt extracts used. A lot of very well known doubles use sugar (pliny) so don't be afraid.Also my preference when dry hopping with citra is to reduce it's % amount in relation to the other varieties due to it's strength. I know quite a few others do this as well, however it comes down to personal preference.
