Remember, Gandalf and Aragorn really didn't want to go back through Moria. They knew it would be terribly dangerous. They might not have known there was a Balrog in there...but they knew it was perilous. It was a desperate choice they had to make...already they had been delayed too long, and could not risk backtracking or going close to Isengard.
