This may be because the water used isn't hot enough the first time.  I
use water that's at least 160 F and if I don't let the wool soak longer
than 20 minutes, I can get Merino squeaky clean with no problem. 
Provided there's enough detergent, too, of course :)

http://www.hjsstudio.com/wash.html is an article about washing wool.  It
really works :)
