OMG dude i feel for u, i did the same thing a while back except on the right... i got my bumper and tail light from subaru in waipahu, for about 400 total with about a 10 day or so wait for shipping. bumper does not come painted so i ended up painting it. not sure if its the cheapest place...

how bad is it beaten up?
if it's bareable then I would say don't replace it now and do NOT repair it now save some money... deal with it. when you have enough money to afford a OEM bumper and get it painted in the factory color do that!
why spend more money than you need to. also remember depending on your car color if you have it repair (if they can repair it) they'll have to color match your bumper.
I say if they can repair it since the bumpers are made out of polyurethene and depending on how deep the damage is will depend on if they are physically able too. bondo may repair it but if you bumper flexes it may just crack the bondo...etc. and you're right back to where you are now.
Again... save up and get a new one that is painted in the factory color code
