What should we do about a bear that keeps climbing over our 4ft fence, into our backyard and stealing our garbage?

Last night, the bear came around again. Heard the garbage cans that are under our deck get knocked over. It climbs our fence to get to the cans which sit against the house. Even after yelling and turning the lights on, it still was chillin right behind the fence. We threw three large firecrackers at it. Thought it left, but it didn’t go anywhere because we heard it a few minutes later. It was right at the back fence again. Shot it with a pellet gun, that seems to work but the sun was coming up at that point, so not sure if that was why it worked.

Help!
