Obviously the fleas are affecting him. He scratches because they bite. He could also be allergic to them. He needs to be treated for his flea infestation with a flea shampoo or some type of flea killer. It's best to get the flea treatments that kill the flea eggs too so that they don't hatch. You also need to treat the area that he lives in whether it be your home, his dog house, etc. You need to do this as soon as possible because the dog is suffering from the fleas. He can also become ill if not cared for.

What kills fleas?

If your dog has fleas I wouldn't suggest you use insecticide to get rid of them as it could harm your dog. You can easily obtain flea treatment shampoos and preventative measures to help stop them reappearing from any good pet store. Regularly grooming your dog will help too as you can stop any fleas which you do find. Get rid of them quickly using the appropriate treatment as fleas can lead to other dog health problems such as hair loss if the dog continually scratches in an attempt to find relief from the irritation.
