Knocking Noise?!?

Every time I turn around there is a problem with this cars front end. I just got my front tire replaced cause of a flat spot, had the two front wheel bearings replaced recently now when I accerate and turn left, even slightly, there is a knocking noise in the front end. It gets quicker with speed. Anybody have any ideas? I went back to STS when I heard this noise and they couldn't find anything wrong, said to see if you still hear it in a week come back. Please help!

My first guess would be the driver's side CV axle needs to be replaced.

Most places should charge about $160-200. You could buy a CV axle from AutoZone for about $60 and do it yourself though.
