My male Black and Tan has three spots about the size of a quarter that have a yellow crust and bleed if messed with. I washed him in antifungal and antibacterial dog wash and I started him on antibiotics for fungal infections also I'm putting fish oil in his food. He also has very dry skin especially around his neck his hair is so rough it feels like sandpaper. Any ideas what the spots could be before I spend money at the vet

Ringworm maybe. If so start spraying with athlete's foot spray.

Go to the feed store buy a bag of sulfur mix up a jar with coconut oil or mineral oil or even a little of both. Apply to any spots daily till gone. It will take care of it whether it's staph, ring worm or some kind of bacteria. You can also feed the dog a spoon of it every day for a week or so. It is like nustock only better.

Till it is the consistency of thick paste.
I would also change out and get rid of any bedding in his dog house.
