I have used Applied Trust (http://www.appliedtrust.com/) and they are
smart about their scans. They don't just check version numbers. I'm
not sure if they do PCI compliance testing, so you'll have to do
further research. They do use Nessus as part of the testing, but the
goal of testing is not for you to find the holes and patch them, it's
to have a report from someone else that says you did.
