But we haven't got enough inbound leads - Is it because the tube site owners that buy traffic do not worry about the bot traffic? Or is it that they get sources to buy all genuine traffic?
that can have different reasons.

bots ARE a huge problem and a lot of them are caused by advertisers (funny isnīt it?).

so a very good fraud protection is a MUST HAVE on every network.

another problem CAN be if a network have too many small publishers. imagin if a big publisher with 2 million click per month make even 100 selfmade clicks it is not effecting nothing.

if a network needs 5000 advertisers for 2 million klicks and each makes 100 fakeclicks it will change the result DRAMATICLY.

i could not read in your post if you ASSUME to have bot-traffic or if you KNOW it.
if you just assume, I would try to make that sure but also look on other factors because from my own network i know, that 95% of bad conversions are caused by wrong ad strategies.
