Why is my dog losing hair, biting, and scratching constantly?

Question

Hello!! There are dogs on my street which in a very bad condition of hair fall... I think they are all struck with a insect.. due to which they keep on bitting their body all the time... Some of which have got a complete hair loss. Could you please recommend me to give them which kind of vaccine? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Male

A vaccine is not needed here. They may have mange or other infection (bacterial or fungal). Ideally, they should be seen by a veterinarian to diagnose the cause. Any treatment will depend on the diagnosis. They will likely require ongoing care until symptoms resolve.
