Terrible Problem- flies all over my bumper

Hey guys so I did my trip from west palm to gainesville and of course I got tons of flies on my front bumper, the problem is:

I forgot about the flies and its been a week since I returned and the flies baked into the paint, I am in college so I dont have many resources but Acura's car wash didnt take care of it, so I used a microfiber and scratch x and the mosquitos wont come off. Whats the nesxt step to take before spending money for a professional detail,

can I wait until October 13 or should this be found and done asap

uhh

It should come with a spray lube, spray it on the car and clay and wipe off the bugs back and forth. Then wipe dry. Dont need water.

Just use wax or a quick detailer after you took off the bugs.

crazy couldnt find it here locally in many shops, i got meguiars cleaner wax which is supposed to helped with "etched" stuff. So I will go to a car wash place where you do it yourself with those pressure cleaners, and then I will use the cleaner wax with the pad and rub really hard, then dry it with a cloth towel, if that doesnt work I will have to buy a clay bar online
