Re-indexing multiple files using btprobe

So we have lots of files -- one is created every day. We want to re-index this data. We have removed the data from the index but in order to re-index the old data we need to clear the fishbucket data.

Something like this:
./splunk cmd btprobe -d $SPLUNK_HOME/var/lib/splunk/fishbucket/splunk_private_db --file $FILE --reset

Has anyone got any ideas of how to reset large amounts of file using the btprobe tool (without individually resetting them)?
