Its said on her article that it only needs a few minutes at most to circulate. It could be such that the initial venom isn't actually a venom, at least not on its own, causing it to be benign enough that the body sees no need to get rid of it, or its something that specifically tricks the body into ignoring its presence. Then the second venom is added and they kill the target by becoming something far more potent.

Or as in my first case, the second strike is a trigger, not necessarily a poison on its own, just something that causes the initial injection to become lethal.

I never said it made any sense man, that's just what its referred to as and I choose to accept it, as its far from the only thing that makes fuck all sense (Especially in Bleach). Besides, all Shinigami abilities (And most others) are spiritual in nature, it doesn't stop them from relying on certain kind of phenomena to achieve their effects.
