Buldge is still there...

I go to the beach in the week and I'm so tied up with funds that going to the bike shop to get the wheel done by them is pretty much out of the question... Is there anything you can suggest to me?
Did you tighten the spokes around hte bump too? you cant just make one spoke really tight and expect it to go. You have to even it out. On the bump, is the high spot on the section of the rim where a spoke is directly beneath it? Or is it on the section of the rim where it is between two spokes.
