Sounds like you might still have some air in it. Also make sure the bleeder is closed before your helper lets up on the brake pedal. Make sure to keep resivoir full of brake fluid while you are bleeding them.

Check for small pinholes, I just had the same problem here it was a tiny pinhole right behind the drivers front wheel at the junction. Photo is the leaking spot.
