I f it does cost anything at a pro-shop, it wouldn't be much, besides, those ovens are made for it.
I know a lot of people who hate getting skates baked, and some who do it, I personally hate it.

The skate shop that you bought them from should do it for free. Otherwise it would only cost 15-20 bucks to have it done professionally...why risk ruining $150++ in skates for a nominal charge? Which brings to mind, anyone hear the rumor that Joe Sakic ruined his sons skates by baking them in their oven? I was at Players Bench in Denver last winter getting my sons skates baked and the "skate tech" was joking with me about it.

Yes you can. Put the oven on low and put the skate on a wood board to keep it from sitting directly on the hot metal. Leave it in for about 8-10 minutes then put em on and leave them on for about half an hour.
Don't know about the t blade though, you might want to take if off first. and make sure you take the insole out.
And yes, you should bake them. that's a composite boot, and unlike the leather boots it will never break in without being baked.
However, it is easier to do at a pro shop, and they know exactly what they're doing, and the cost is minimal.

You can tell they're done when you can stick a butter knife in the middle and theres no uncooked dough stuck to it when you pull it out. Also, remeber to let them cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

The leather on the boots would go well before the skate itself gets soft. In other words good bye good skates.

Ok, woah, I read your question wrong the first time..
uhm..err sorry.
I'm not sure if you can bake them at home...you can go get it done someplace though.
I'd really reccomend it though i hear it helps you move faster.
But dont wear them within 24 hours of heating or you could damage them.
