Is there a time limit on how long a police officer keeps your blood sample for a DUI, before he takes the sample to a lab?

78 days is an extremely long time to keep sample prior to testing. Not sure what county your case is in, but that would be very unusual in l.a. county. Hire an attorney. In my opinion, increased chance that sample was compromised and can be challenged or potentially suppressed. Particularly if not refrigerated or preservative issue. Can't imagine that waiting 78 days to test blood is normal procedure.

Should I hire an attorney if I still have not been charged for a DUI, but I blew a .08 and then a .07?

I am assuming that you have already received a citation/notice to appear in court and have a court date coming up. I would definitely recommend hiring an attorney prior to your court date. If you cannot afford one, then ask the judge to appoint the Public Defender's Office to represent you. It "may" be possible for you to plead to a lesser charge than a DUI.

Will they revoke or suspend my teaching credential if I did not attend the hearing?

Get an administrative law attorney. They will revoke if you do not attend. With lawyer, they may just put you on probation with alcohol monitoring.
