Am I correct that our brake lines which connect to the abs control unit have bubble type flare? I'm going to replace the flare nut because it is too rounded.

So - I assume you still have a small leak? Other than that, is the replacement ABS module working OK?
But if it's not leaking, and you are replacing the flare nut just because it got rounded off - then I really must compliment you on being a true fanatic!! Looking at that type of rounded off nut would drive me crazy - and I just might decide to replace it even if it wasn't leaking!
Only advice I have - put a couple extra gentle bends in the new line to make it a bit longer than necessary. That way if you screw up one of the flares, you have enough extra slack to stretch it back out and try again. I suppose my bad luck with brake line flares might have something to do with my $39 flaring tool. If you have the $500 hydraulic tool with a nice set of dies, then it would make sense to totally ignore this post!
