Bites of any sort are likely to get infected; a cat's wounds will close before they self-clean, which will often result in abscesses. Raccoons can harbour a number of diseases including rabies that can jump to cats. Treatment at a vet, despite its expense, is strongly recommended, and be prepared to dose your cat with whatever prescription your vet provides.
