Anybody handy?

Fuk fuk fuk. So in order to put on my new parts (which aren't here yet, mind you) I have to remove two bolts from the frame of my chair. They've got really short heads, like a cap screw I guess, and have a hex for an allen wrench. Well...

One came out lickity-split with some Liquid Wrench. The other. Oh, the other. The hex stripped after about two turns. Honest. I didn't do enough to strip it. I think it was machine driven and stripped to begin with. I can't get a grip with an allen wrench at all any more. The head is also too short to grab with Vise-Grips.

Any ideas? I guess I have to have it drilled out? Fuk. Who would be able to do that? I mean, what kind of shop? Lord knows I don't have the equipment for that. But who? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Buuuuller?
