Bacterial canker in young cherry tree

Hi,
I planted and Dwarf Stella a year ago and I have noticed some very small holes appearing in the leaves, having done some further research I am quite sure my tree has bacterial canker.
The advice I have found is to treat with copper-based fungicides and to start treating in August. I am concerned that this may be too late, the tree is very young and probably 90% of the leaves are affected.
Can I treat now in May?
Any help would be much appreciated.
