Andy Woodman's side remain ahead of Swindon, while County are still in 23rd place.
Two minutes into first-half added time, the home side went ahead in fortuitous manner.
Firstly, Jude Arthurs headed against the base of a post from a free-kick and, as Michael Cheek reacted, his shot was deflected into the net by Baker-Richardson.
County made it 2-0 when Will Hondermarck crossed from the right and fellow substitute Kabamba eased the ball into the net from a couple of yards out.
Opoku netted from close range to pull a goal back for Christian Fuchs' side, but Bromley did enough to hold on for the points.
