You could sand blast it or you could use a process called cryogenic blasting where it freezes the paint to about -200F and it just breaks off the brick because of the temperature difference. A little expensive but you will achieve the best results w/out fading the brick which sandblasting does. Someone painted your fireplace I bet huh

if it's outside, use a power washer. probably 3000psi will work - it depends on a type of paint. go to a local hardware store who rents them and ask them.

Inside I would say sand blasting.
Outside I would say a power washer.

sand blaster or you could use a wire brush, but it will take forever.
