My guess is that even when you have cleaned his tank, some mites have been hitching a ride on him!
Clean & sanitize everything, get rid of the plants. Give the frog a good soak and keep him in what we call a "Hospital" container, a smaller container on damp paper towels for at least a week. See if that helps cut the mites out. Give him a good soaking while cleaning the stuff off.
As for the temps.....it isn't your room's temp that matters, it's the enclosure's temps that matter. Get a temp gun and monitor the temps inside the enclosure and tweak them until they are just right. No higher than 82 at the hot area & no lower than 76 in the cool side. Humidity should be a constant 80%.
Food.....earthworms/nightcrawlers are a perfectly fine staple diet with supplements & calcium added to occasional feedings. We have some frogs that absolutely HATE crickets or anything with legs.......that's okay.
Just make sure they are getting the correct amounts of vitamin supplements & calcium to make it a complete diet.
Best of luck in getting rid of the mites and returning the frog to a healthy environment!
