I think it's pretty clear that the third midnight is a deadline for the Witch, as she pushes them very hard to gather the ingredients by that time, and also to get them fed to Milky White (and milk her) before the strike of the third midnight.

What isn't clear is why this is the deadline, and perhaps more importantly, why she waited until there were three days left before she first approached the Baker and his Wife about helping her get the ingredients. But then we wouldn't have much of a show if everyone acted rationally.
