Any one know what it is and, more importantly, how to get rid of it?

Looks like Peziza (plaster fungi) to me, caused by dampness & poor ventilation etc, not quite sure on the appropriate treatment methods though.

Remove, clean thoroughly and bleach areas.

Yep, clean and disinfect area, using a dilute solution of 90% water to 10% bleach, using neat bleach will not be more effective.
And solve the problem that caused the growth.
