Oven Won't Ignite

My whirlpool SF265lxtb oven will not ignite. I hear it click on & smell gas but it won't go on. I have to continuous push the start button numorous times to get it to ignite. The stove 7 yrs old as of Mar. Back in 2013 a technication came out & replaces the sparker as it was doing the same thing then. What is the cause of this malfunction? I should not have a problem when the stove is not 7 yrs old. Please advise Karen
