We prove existence, multiplicity, and bifurcation results for $p$-Laplacian problems involving critical Hardy-Sobolev exponents. Our results are mainly for the case $\lambda \ge \lambda_1$ and extend results in the literature for $0 < \lambda < \lambda_1$. In the absence of a direct sum decomposition, we use critical point theorems based on a cohomological index and a related pseudo-index.
