It isn't impossible to get IKEA goods delivered from Dharan to Bahrain but it's likely to be costly and time-consuming. The person going over the border would need a valid visa to get into the country and it would take a couple of hours to get through customs at the border on the way back - all of which I'm sure they'd want compensation for. You'd also most likely need to pay customs fees on top of that. Apparently Home Centre in Bahrain is similar to IKEA. This might be a much easier and cheaper option for you.

Yes, it should be possible to bring your household goods through customs, though there are some restrictions. There's some info on restricted items as well as required documents on the Expat Arrivals Shipping and Removals in Bahrain page.
To make absolutely sure you have all the correct documentation and understand all the requirements, it's also a good idea to seek advice and assistance from a relocation company that knows the process well. You can view a short list of some reputable relocation companies here.
Best of luck with your move.
