\+1 to everyone else. If you have a legit CS degree then you probably don't need a bootcamp. You'll be much more advanced then everyone else, and mainly benefit from networking, and the confidence boost that you'll get from basically unofficially teaching all your peers. Codesmith is the most prominent bootcamp that attracts people some people with degrees and experience and I hear the above \^\^\^ as the primary issue. But some people are so lost in the job hunt post graduation that having a network and community might be extremely valuable and worth the cost, it's a personal call. Also look at career accelerators. I'm the co-founder of Formation.dev (we tend to work with people with 1+ years professional experience, so might not be a good fit, but look into it!) as well as Outco.io, Interview Kickstart, Pathrise, Coachable.dev, and Scalar. These programs might be way more inline with your needs than a bootcamp.
