    Really depends on how bad the scratches are. A few pics would be handy. If they are only light grazes then maybe something like T-Cut might do the trick. If the scratches are deep then the bumper most likely need to be filled, sanded, primed and resprayed.

    It really is a tough one to call as a bad DIY job might actually make it look worse rather than better. If it bothers you that much it might be worth getting a quote from a body shop or two.

    QFT.

    Often, even a good touch up job will make it look worse. Repairing these things is usually all or nothing. If the car is new enough, I'd probably bite the bullet.

    Again, pics will help
