You can even bleed them yourself by using a rubber hose and a bottle.

1. Break loose the fitting.
2. Get a hose that will fit snug on the fitting and push it on.
3. Get a clean bottle (preferrably clear) and fill it about half-full with brake fluid.
4. Run the hose down into the bottle.
5. When you pump the brakes, the air will go out of the hose and escape the bottle. Only fluid will be sucked back in.
6. Tighten the fitting. Done.

It's worked for me many times. You just have to make sure to watch your fluid level in the bottle.
