Both routes are equally protective.
Using both routes will not give you enhanced protection.
It may even increase risk of vaccine reaction like redness, swelling ,fever, flu like illness
do contact me for further diagnosis and treatment if you feel necessary.

Yes after 3 months of previous vaccine. If you get bit you need to get a booster unless your dog is completely vaccinated against rabies.
Do contact me for further diagnosis and treatment if you feel necessary.

Will slightly reduce protection time and efficiency.
No effect on current bite though just be careful. Don't get bitten in future and if you do, take booster dose on time.

Booster is needed.
Whether you get it or not is up to you.
But I would recommend you to get vaccinated.
Less than 90 days or 3 months of last vaccination, you do not need to be vaccinated.
But you have crossed 90 days.

Contact of saliva of animal with broken skin is a high risk factor.
If wound is active bleeding then you should get rabies vaccine + immunoglobulin.+ tetanus vaccine as well if not vaccinated in last 10 years.
If wound is not actively bleeding or you were previously vaccinated for rabies with full course, you only need 2 booster doses and no immunoglobulin.

Better if you get rabies and tetanus vaccine if you are not already vaccinated.
Though it is minor scratch and not high risk of infection.
