Will I need an to do criminal history at a live scan business for a k1 visa at federal level or state level? Which one should I choose because I am being asked for one or the other. Should I choose both?

Most probably not. 

Are you the petitioner, or the beneficiary?

Do you have an history of arrests, court cases, or criminal convictions?  

 

"Which one should I choose because I am being asked for one or the other." - Who is asking you?

I have three arrests but no convictions all in the state of California. The live scan person is asking me which one do I want

Not sure what you mean by 'the live scan person'. The question is, do you actually need a 'live scan' for your visa petition? Probably not. 

Please note that most forum members recommend you file your own petition and application, as simple cases are better done by yourself. It tends to prevent issues because you care way more about getting it right than third parties do. If you'd like professional assistance, you could approach some of the organisations that are trusted by VisaJourney members such as Boundless. 

As you are the applicant, you will probably need to disclose your arrests even if you were not convicted. Copied from the form:
