My dog has had the first two anti rabies doses and his third was due five days ago. His teeth pierced my skin by mistake drawing blood. Do I need anti rabies vaccination? It's only been five days pending for my dog.

Yeah you need to start ARV watch your dog for 10 days if he is normal at 10th day you can stop ARV. Rabies is a dreaded disease with no treatment once it develops something no risks when it comes to rabies GET VACCINATED.
