all you can do is keep treating until they stop appearing — blast them off with a good spray of water next watering day

How often are you treating for them? What are you treating them with? I've blasted plants with shower water to get what I could off and sprayed insecticidal soap. Usually about once a week. Some bad infestations require more aggressive methods such as seven spray or similar and more frequently

What I always do is get a brush and cleansing acholol diluted with water and grab the mealybugs and I do it about 1 a week
