Default Need some body advice

Just bought my wife an '05 Accord, It's eternal blue (close to NBM). Anyway, She's had it for about 2weeks and a crow landed in front of her two days ago and took out part of her front bumper. It completely tore off two plastic pieces and cracked the front fascia about 6 inches. I don't want to take it to a body shop and pay out the *** to fix a brand new car, but I want to make sure it doesn't crack any further and hide the damage the best that I can. I used some plastic epoxy to temporarily hold it together and it's held for two days now, but I don't expect it to last. Are there any fillers or anything that I can put in the crack or behind it to hold it together and close up the crack that will last?

Thanks. The more I read about urethane, the more it looks like I might as well bite the bullet and file an insurance claim to get it fixed. Doesn't sound like it will ever hold (especially with my limited ability).
