You can treat at any time, unless you are using dormant oil. This will need to be done during dormancy.

This is a fungal infection, likely brought about by excessive rains, or overwatering.

I would recommend treating with a fungicide. This article will help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/fruits/avocado/avocado-tree-with-no-fruit.htm

I would also recommend treating, once per year, with DOLOMITIC LIME and WETTABLE SULFUR. This will help keep the soil conditioned, as well as prevent soil infections in the future.

Thank you so much! Yes, it pretty much rained everyday for the months of May and June here is WV. I will definitely treat the soil. Should I do it in fall when they have all died out or wait till early spring?
