Bulking is a dangerous and (usually) ineffective technique to gain muscle mass. It is a fallacy to assume that you need to have a high body fat percentage in order to gain muscle, and it could be dangerous. Also, the perceived muscle gains from bulking tactics are usually fat or water stored in the muscle, and do not represent any real gains in strength, endurance, or appearance.

At roughly 15% body fat, you are neither too thin or too fat, and should not have any problems related to fat or energy when building muscle. What is important is that you maintain your calorie intake in relation to your work load. The more work you do, the more calories you need. If you find that your body fat percentage is increasing, you're eating too many calories and may need to recalibrate your diet.
