Are you sure you have the interior lights switch off to begin with? There is the slide switch which controls whether the lights come on when you open the door or not. Then there is th button switch, which is usually use only for when you are in the car and need the lights t come on (map light function).

I have double checked all the switches and they are set correctly. Like I said, it doesn't do it every time the door is opened. I'm thinking it may be a bad door switch. Is there a good way to get the switch out without destroying it?

Look in the repair manual. You can find it by using the link in my sig below.
REMOVAL
DOOR AJAR SWITCH
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Using a trim stick, press and release the retaining tab (1) at
the top of the door ajar switch.
3. Pull the top of the door ajar switch out and downward away
from the B-pillar (2), then disconnect the door ajar switch
harness connector.
