We use QSetup from http://www.pantaray.com/. This does it all, .net dependencies, if you compile with packages to keep the executable small it lets you know what you need to include. Well worth a look and a trial.

I consider it very easy to use albeit maybe a bit outdated now for .Net distributions. It supports version updating and has a good uninstaller.
