You could try a blow dryer on high to warm it up and try to press it out from behind and compound the scratch out.

it ONLY scratched the bumper? I'd leave it, or at the most, do what White64Goat said....

Might as well try this, worst case scenario it doesnt come out perfect and your back to where you were before.

If you end up getting a new bumper just file an insurance claim and let them take care of it. But you could probably get that fixed and touched up for cheaper than your deductible.
