If the bearings are OK, you'll need to have the front brake discs machined to correct their warp. Now, after the discs are corrected, the old pads may not "mate" or align well with the newly machined discs, so you should replace the front pads as well

Recommendation:

There is an alignment issue with the front brake pads and discs. Take this vehicle to a reputable garage and ask the mechanic to check the front wheel bearings for wear or looseness and the front rotors for "warp."
