It depends where they are, how well you cleaned, and what you got rid of, probably some luck too. In my case bites were not frequent at all. There are methods to kill them without chemicals by subjecting them to certain temperatures as well.

    You can also just sprinkle diatomaceous earth around. That shit kills ‘em dead by piercing their exoskeleton and dehydrating them.

    Yeah that'll work slowly and is better for making perimeters or when the infestation is mild. Once it's settled in you need heat treatment and everything that can't be heated needs frozen for two weeks or rinsed in alcohol. If you act sane about this they'll come back until you stop.
