Be as non confrontational as possible and explain that you just thought they should know and you're not looking for payment or anything from them (I assume you're not since you're debating whether to even tell them about it).

I back this approach. As others have said, your dog was off a leash and they were excited, and dogs being dogs they will occassionally bite - but the owners should be aware of what happened. I would want to know if it was my dog - just so I would know to be watchful for a while when my dog was around others or small children.
There's also the possibility that if your dogs and the neighbor's setter are out together in the yard, the dynamic may be interesting, and the neighbors should be aware of any reasons why.
