 I found a position that is really up my alley.

With no connections there, I found a contract recruiter for the company and just sent them an invitation noting I was interested in the company and current opportunities. The job was initially posted on 12/15 but is still up and I'm getting antsy. Should I directly apply while waiting for the recruiter? I feel like the recruiter may not like that because they might not be able to say they discovered me. Cool my jets and wait a couple days, if no response then apply direct?

 The company is small enough to be a direct e-mail application procedure, so if the only bonus is being seen then I'm not sure if I using a recruiter would be worthwhile.
