I would start with the 'clone stamp' tool and try to clone out the bubbles using the appropriate areas near the bubbles as the clone source.

Or post the photo somewhere that's downloadable and let the photoshop experts show what's possible.

Or rather try the healing brush tool - one click solution. Why not post the pic so we can see where the bubbles are ?
Healing brush, clone tool and layers. Depending on how many bubbles it might be a royal pain the neck.
You might contact these guys to see if it is something they could offer - I've had friends use them and say their work is fast and fabulous and you cannot beat the price.

There is a far more effective method than the clone and healing brush tools. It works for bubbles as well as backscatter...
1. Make a duplicate layer of your image.
2. Open 'Filters', then 'Noise - Dust and Scratches'.
3. Apply a 'Dust and Scratches' filter that removes all the small bubbles/backscatter. (Yes, this will make your image very blurred).
4. Go to the 'History' palette. Toggle the 'history state' for the filter you just applied.
5. Click on the prior action 'Create Duplicate Layer'. The picture will return to its state prior to the filter.
6. Choose the 'History Brush'. From the tool menu, opt for 'Darken'.
7. Paint over the bubbles/backscatter using the history brush.
What this will do is only remove the small objects that are 'lighter' than the background. It is very effective for removing small bubbles and backscatter.

I guess I envisioned real bubble bubbles that will not be easily removed
using the history brush etc is really great for removing stuff so defo worth having in your knowledge bank!
