Where to start, you may have one (or more) virgin queens in the old hive. The bees will not accept a caged queen. My suggestion would be to order a queen. When she arrives put together a three frame nuc and introduce her there. Keep an eye on both hives and see what you have. If one hive continues to appear queenless then give them brood from the other hive. Once the queen in the nuc is out and laying decide where you want her. If one hive appears to remain queenless combine the nuc with that hive. If both hives have queens then you will want to requeen the hive that swarmed twice as that one will have a queen of unknown quality. Once you get that fixed up you want to requeen the other hive(s) as well. Young queens will help prevent swarming.
