I would like to make the image subtraction as accurate as possible, thus I think that image subtraction should take place after the psf of the frames is matched.

There are a couple of packages around for difference imaging or difference image
analysis (DIA), e.g. ISIS http://www2.iap.fr/users/alard/package.html. When it
comes to IDL you might want to have a look at Dan Bramich's page
http://www.danidl.co.uk/danidl.features.shtml which provides both papers and
code (DanIDL v1.1) for this purpose.
