How do I help my hens and rooster get over their molt? The hens are still laying but have been molting for about 7 months.

Looks like feather picking. Up protein a little. Consider spraying effected areas with BlueKote to make less appealing to pick at. Also consider putting some hay in run to provide some mental diversion. I see more self damaging behavior with bored birds.
Do they have enough space on the roost at night. I figured out my chicken was getting peeked at night . I made the roost bigger so they were not close enough to touch each other.
