They can probably take care of it with a brief exchange - something like 
this maybe:

An owl arrives with the 2nd reprimand for Harry for using magic outside 
Hogwarts.  He reads the message with Ron and Hermione reading over his 
shoulder.  As they get done, Hermionie says "A SECOND reprimand?  But 
Harry, when did you get reprimanded before?  I don't recall you mentioning 
it?".  Harry scowls a bit and then says "Oh, that.  When Dobby showed up at 
my house to try and warn me away from returning last year, he used 
magic.  The Ministry thought it was me, and gave me a reprimand for it."

Or something to that effect - it takes about 5, maybe 10 seconds to do, 
clears the matter up and off we go with the story....
