Yes. Just take it to a shop. No personal experience locally, but I've heard good things about Independent Automotive on Glendale off of McCarran.

I just replaced the bearing on my car. It's relatively easy, we just had to use a press at a machine shop to press the old bearing out of the hub and the new one in.
