Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until deep golden brown and crisp.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels.
Whisk flour and next 3 ingredients in a medium bowl.
Using an electric mixer, beat both sugars and butter in a large bowl, occasionally scraping down sides, until well blended, 2-3 minutes.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well between additions.
Add vanilla; mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy, 4-5 minutes.
Mix in dry ingredients.
Fold bacon, oats, and raisins into batter and stir until evenly incorporated (dough will be sticky; chill briefly for easier handling, if desired).
Using a 2-ounce ice cream scoop or 1/4-cup measure and forming dough into balls, scoop batter onto prepared sheets, spaced at least 3" apart.
Chill dough for 1 hour or cover and chill overnight.

Let cool on baking sheets for 10 minutes.
Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely.
DO AHEAD: Can be made 3 days ahead.
