Default ABS failure or something else?

Hi guys,
Last week I was driving home and after going over a speed bump, my brake pedal went all the way to the floor, I pulled over and turned my car off, then the pedal was firm again, so I started it back up again and the pedal goes all the way to the floor again. The BRAKE and TRACS OFF light have been on for a bit, but I haven't had any problems besides that, I've checked to see if the brake system had a leak, but the fluid level is still normal. If it is the ABS module I've heard that it can be fixed cheaper than replaced. Does anyone know anyone reputable that could do this?

Thanks

Also, the brakes still work, I just have to push the brake pedal all the way to the floor to make them work, and if I push too hard, they lock up.

That might be a bad master cylinder.
