Anyway, as he is going to the owlry, Mrs.Norris, the
cat, sees him and goes off to warn Filtch.  Then,
Flitch shows up and says he's been tipped off that
someone is ordering dungbombs.
 
However, I have never been able to know what to
make of it.

I don't have the books with me, but as far as I remember Harry and 
his friends suspected (quite rightly I think) that it was Umbridge 
who had told Mr Filch someone was trying to order dungbombs. Of 
course this was not her real worry: She wanted Mr Filch to spy on the 
students and intercept any communication going on in the hope that he 
would catch anyone (especially Harry) with valuable information. I 
recall Mr Filch being under the command to deliver any 
letters/messages directly to Umbridge. Remember, Umbridge even 
intercepted Hedwig to find out what Harry was up to, breaking her 
wing!
