After struggling with the same issue you describe, here is what I found to be most effective at reducing front brake sponginess...

1) Take off the front master cylinder cover.
2) Take a screwdriver and push the front brake pad, which in turn pushes the brake caliper cylinder back. Push it in as far as you can.
3) Make sure any air bubbles under the baffle in the master cylinder are out of the fluid - light tapping works.
4) Repeatedly pull and release the brake lever at a moderate pace until the pads are fully seated again.
