You can use washers on each side of the holes.
You could try superglue, sounds stupid but you'd be suprised. Keep in mind this will ruin the paint under the lip and on top of the bumper.You could also have it molded on. I don't like the way molded lips look, but I'm just throughing ideas out for you.

Washers are like little flat donuts you put on the bolt to stop it from passing through the worn out hole in your bumper. Then put another one on the end with the nut so it won't slide out the other end of the bumper. It's easier to do than explain.

Have you tried using 3M heavy duty double sided tape? Home Depot carries them.
