and i'm not sure what you mean by "front lateral raise" there are either front shoulder raises or lateral shoulder raises. front work front delt and trap, lateral raise is medial (lateral) head of deltoid with traps.
you said your shoulders hurt. are burnt out or did you injure them? with the weights you are doing, no offense meant, your shoulders are way behind. your bench is good and your other stuff sounds good but your shoulder workout sounds weak. if you have injury then i understand, but if you mean they hurt because they burn out when doing chest then that means your chest is stronger than your shoulders. by your weights, it sounds like your shoulders are laggin your chest so they'll burn out on a chest day faster.
i'm doing 205 on bench, but my overhead press is 65lb db's 4 sets of 10. my shoulders are stronger than my chest, but for benching 245 i would think your shoulders would be stronger. i would try to bring the shoulders back up to speed. make sure you're doing some rear delt workouts too so they arne't oddly shaped. front raise, lat raise then rear delt raise on shoulder days along with overhead press. that will target the full shoulder.
