My undergrad degree is art education. Will it be best for me to specify in one area?

Colleges and universities have advisers in the graduate department. They would be more than willing to help you decide on a major.
But first, it would be a good idea to make a list of the areas of art that interest you the most. Ask yourself some soul searching questions. Do you want to teach a technique like pottery or about the history of art during the Mayan Period? When you narrow the field, it helps you to focus on your goal.

Skip the masters and get a doctorate if you want to teach at a US university. With a masters you can only be a non-tenured instructor. For a professor position you need a doctorate.

Fine arts is correct, but to be honest in this atmosphere in the university systems you will likely need a Phd to get a job. Good luck.

Fine Arts with certification, teach at high school level while working towards Ph.D. Then move up. They look for experience as well as your degree.

I believe you need a Masters of Fine Arts. You do have to specialize, I believe. Actually, I haven't got a clue...

Yes. Find something you love, because the extreme competition for these kinds of positions requires the dedication that only comes with passion for something.
Bear in mind, getting anything but straight A's is pretty much a path to failure in this field.
