Why did you get audited? Do you have a suspecion of a reason? If your tax returns in recent years have been simple and straight forward, you may be able to handle it yourself. But getting a CPA to help you is the safer way to go. At least you need to review your files with a CPA to get some idea on why you were audited and what the outcome could be.
Another benefit of getting a CPA - if you find one that has been doing tax returns for a long time in your area, they would have worked with the auditors before. They know how to deal with these types of situations.
This is the time to pay money in exchange for being out of trouble.
Good luck.
