Brake squeal with new pads - due to rotors?

About 2 months ago the car was at the dealer and was told the front pads were low; I said sure, replace them. Lo and behold, they squealed like crazy. After a 1,000 mile road trip, they still squeal at low speeds.
I brought the car in again and they replaced the front pads for free, but said if the squealing remains I'll need to replace the rotors.
Does this make sense? It's frustrating, since the car was nice and quiet before.
Tried washing off the brake dust and this works for a little while but still not great. Tried a couple of hard stops from high speed, but no difference.
Just want to stop scaring the wits out of everyone walking on the street when I stop.
