I can use my right blinker but as soon as I use my left blinker it blows my fuse and its very dim in the dashboard, I dont think I can use my hazzard lights either because I think it would blow them too. What can I do to fix it? Someone said check the ground or there could be a pinched wire.

Sounds like the power wire to the left turn circuit is shorted to ground somewhere. Has the car ever been in a accident?

Finding any shorted wire is no fun lol inside the car or outside the car. The first thing I would check is the blubs make sure there not shorted out blown water in them etc.
