If you are using the bower you could rewrite your font-face to:

@font-face {
  font-family: FontAwesome;
  src: url(font-awesome/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot);
  src: url(font-awesome/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot?#iefix) format('embedded-opentype'), 
       url(font-awesome/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff) format('woff'), 
       url(font-awesome/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttf) format('truetype'), 
       url(font-awesome/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.svg#fontawesomeregular) format('svg');
  font-weight: 400;
  font-style: normal
}
