Unfortunately many so called consultant operating overseas are not regulated by ICCRC and It is an offense punishable by law to provide Canadian immigration services for a fee or other consideration if not regulated by ICCRC, a Canadian law society, or the Chambre des notaires du Québec. Hence those rep do not indicate that they are being used in the client' application. I reckon the rep used by OP is of the same kind.
5 years ban.

Google the form. You should have filled and signed it to give your representative authorisation to apply on your behalf. If you didn't fill that form then IRCC was not informed that someone was applying for you. This makes an already bad case REALLY bad.
Hiring an immigration lawyer now would just be throwing good money after bad IMO. You should just wait for your ban to be over and hope for the best for future applications.
Unless you are gathering evidence against your agent, but the form wont do anything at the moment. It is IMM5476 “Use of Representative form”
I don't think the consultant hired was licensed so there was no form filled nor signed. It definitely is an unfortunate situation that has happened . Also to note is there are few licensed consultant operating overseas, so it is hard to find a reliable unlicensed consultant.
That is unlikely to happen, as stated in the notes according to officer he/she doesn't see the IMM5476 and hence it is straightforward case to the officer. And most likely this consultant is not licensed so there was no mention of his license number nor his name so this consultant can't be legally held responsible for this mess and hiring an immigration lawyer is of no use because there isn't any evidence to bring him to justice.
