Assuming you mean Atomic Bombs, it was because they didn't have any, and besides, how much punishment should be enough for the Japanese to see the writing ion the wall?

The fire bombing of Japan before the use of Atomic weapons had been far more devastating and wide-spread than the Atomic Bomb later were.

Were there any disagreemants on whether or not to bomb japan?

There were a few disagreements since the bombs had been developed to drop on Germany. They were not built to be used on Japan. The American public however (not knowing about the atomic bombs) put up a huge protest to end the war. So the only way the Presidential Cabinet could see to end the war was to use the atomic bombs since the Japanese leaders were not about to surrender. It did work. The bombs motivated Emperor Hirohito to surrender despite the Japanese military desire to keep fighting.
