What Causes Itching While Suffering From Scabies?

Hi,
I have been suffering from scabies for about a month now. I did 5%permethrin cream three weeks ago and twice more one week apart. I still have itchiness here and there which gets worst at bedtime. I don't see any new lesions and have not seen any since first treatment. Does this mean i am scabies free or is there chance there are still larvae in my skin?
