Likely TRITC and FITC would be surface labels, which might have higher protein turnover. Another drawback of that method, for some assays, would be the potential disruption of cell surface protein function after the conjugation, potentially affecting cell-cell interactions.

I just looked over the paper, and I see that we were able to retain label
only for two days or so because, we assumed, of protein turnover in the
cells. This may be a fundamental problem that you will have to consider.
You may want to consider a fluorescent protein label that could be
transfected in.
