Avid Juicy screws

Hi
I've been fiddling around with my avid juicy 3s for a while now, trying to find where I want them on my bars. But I think the allan key I have been using to loosen/tighten the screw was slighty too small. Now, the edges of the screw have worn away and I can't tighten up my brakes. They are just sitting loosely on my bars.
Can I sort this out myself or will I need to take it to the LBS.
Thanks :D

    thanks for the replies
    Do you think most LBSs will sell similar screws?

    what fitting is the clmp.
    single bolt or 2 bolt?

    Single bolt on juicy 3s. The local bike shop will have spares

    not a standard bolt as they have a reduced shoulder allowing fitting from top or bottom on the clamp.

    So it may be a special order.
