yes, a spirit user has to stake a Strigoi with a stake charmed with healing powers.
Dimitri did not turn Strigoi by choice, him and some other of the school's guardians were in a battle with Strigoi to rescue some students from the academy they kidnapped when he was caught and turned Strigoi against his will. Rose wanted to go back to rescue him, but she would just die too if she did. Hope I helped.
He's chalky white with a red ring around his pupils which all strigoi vampires have.
He's a strigoi because there was a big attack on the academy, so the gaurdians had to fight them. Some gaurdians died when they attacked the place that the strigoi were staying. Dimitri got cornered in a tunnel and got turned. Hope this helped.

no, in the 5th book of the series, dimitri turns back. SPOILERS to kill a strigoi you need to have a charmed stake with the four elements. but lissa discovers if you charm a stake with spirit, you can restore a strigoi. but the stake must be driven through the heart by a spirit user itself. so lissa learns how to stake a strigoi and then she stakes dimitri through the heart. dimitri then turns back.
ask me i think they're real
Dimitri has turned strigoi due to the attack in the cave where Janine, Rose, other guardians including Dimitri himself were fighting. It happened to be when Rose and the others had finished off killing the strigoi when suddenly another strigoi jumps out and takes out Dimitri by surprise but no one could help because the sun was about to set which meant more strigoi were going to come. Rose who was trying to save him couldn't reach in time and was told by her mother that he was dead because everyone saw the blond strigoi bite him. Dimitri was to be dead or taken away with the strigoi because in the morning all the guardians go searching for bodies only to come back with lots of injured and dead bodies that belonged to other guardians who were along side Rose and Dimitri. Rose finds out for sure what happened to Dimitri when she runs out the wards to meet her long dead friend, Mason who is there in the form of a spirit. He tells Rose that Dimitri is no longer alive nor dead but a strigoi.
