    You'll probably get more fines or some jailtime, violating probation is a serious offense. Have you talked to your probation officer?

    You are lucky, this is what happens, if they violate you, they violate you and get a warrant to pick you up. At that time, you are held pending a court hearing, at the hearing, they can put you back in jail to serve your sentence, fine you or more. So you are lucky that they let you get by with it this time
