The valance needs to be removed before the bumper can be removed.
You might be able to reach the bolts on the sides through the signal light openings.

Behind the front wheel where the frame turns in to the middle is OK.
Under the lower A arm or under the front crossmember are also OK.

Can you slide the jack under the very centre of the front and get it under the crossmember?

if you dont want to do the bumper thing you can saftely jack on the two out riggers that the front stabilizer goes through, just do it a little bit at a time, and be careful the jack has a tendecy to slide. this way you wont twist the frame as much and you can block it up at the same time
