Default Wheel bearing scraping sound

I definately have the wheel bearing issue. MY04 and never did the Axle TSB.

My question is.... if I already have the scraping sound, it it too late to perform the Axle nut TSB?

My car is going into storage on Tuesday for the next 3 years. I was thinking I may not have time to get it fixed before turning it in. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think it will be ok. If not, I will make every effort to get it done tomorrow.

If I take it to the dealership to get serviced... should I have them replace BOTH set of bearings? and then retorque BOTH axle nuts left/right side?

Thanks for the help.

It's actually about 2 and a half years. I'm moving to Japan and am going to buy all the "JDM" parts and bring them back.

UPDATE:

Ok, took it to the dealer and once they took the wheels off they immediately noticed that I have NO Front pads... Yikes.

I was wondering why the sound was coming from the FRONT left side and not the REAR left side where the axle nut in question is located.

I will wait and see if after the brakes are repaired if the noise continues. If not, I'll be done with it and do the AXLE retorque when I get back from Japan.
