Bilbao to Irun

Time of past OR future Camino
CDN, Primitivo, Sanabrés, Portugués, Ruta do Mar,
I thought it better to ask those of you with experience for some guidance. When I arrive into the Bilbao airport I would like to immediately head over to Irún. The bus schedule from ALSA does show a bus that goes there throughout the day, but the times don´t work with my arrival time. I would have to wait in Bilbao for about 4 hours so then my arrival in Irún would be at night. I would prefer to be there earlier. If there is no other option, obviously I have to go with that. Do you know of other means of public transportation to go to Irún? I would be forever thankful for any help you can give me.

¡Buen Camino!

Never mind! I did some searching and found out that I can actually take a bus right from the airport to San Sebastián and then take the Topo to Irún.
The bus from the airport costs 15,70€, and they leave every hour to San Sebastián. There is a short walk to go to the Topo and Euskotren station. They have trains to Irún every 30 minutes.

Here is the link for the Topo - you do have to enter in Municipio Origen: DONOSTIA-SAN SEBASTIÁN, and in Municipio Destino: IRÚN

If the link takes to a page that says it has moved, then go here and click on Topo Euskotren Lasarte-Donostia-Hendaia

Hopefully someone else will find this useful :D
