About a year ago we used the bumblebee2 very successfully in ROS, but we did not use the pointgrey library nor the factory provided calibration files:

We used the standard ROS stereo image pipeline and calibration tools with the bumblebee2. We also had to modify the camera_drivers node to support format_7 firewire (two cameras on one cable):

I don't have time to walk you through the whole process, but perhaps some of the stuff in that repo will help.
