I am going to go out on a limb and say that the first brake shop that "discovered" oil in the brakes not only took advantage of you, but nearly got you killed.

While it is relatively easy to replace the caliper, rotors, master cylinder, etc, if the system were contaminated as you describe, there is a good chance they should have replaced the brake lines as well or thoroghly flushed the system. Brake lines are not easy to replace which may have deterred them from doing this work. Also, the rubber in the flex lines going from the frame to the caliper in the front are subject to contamination by oil (on the inside) so they should have been replaced.

It just burns me up when I hear about shops taking advantage of customers like that. I was convinced long ago to "do it myself" unless the tools are too expensive. I know this is not an option for everyone, but you are doing the right thing by posting here. You will get some good feedback from some very knowledgeable folks.
