You might want to provide some better resources to identify the words.
You request is a little confusing and, I couldn't find the words you provided.

Maybe you mis-typed them.
 
I don't know about Miyazaki dialect but found on the net that てげよだきい (tege yodakii) means "very much a bother" when one is not willing to do something.
てげ tege means very, really, awfully よだきい is a bother, pain, trouble, etc. that makes people feel reluctant, unwilling, etc.

In standard Japanese it would be すごくめんどう sugoku mendou, or とてもめんど（う）くさい totemo mendokusai.

Are there online dictionaries that search other dialects? I used Excite.co.jp's dictionary and found nothing.

I'm afraid that it is not available online. In fact, I haven't found it in print, either. There seem to be several books on dialects or dictionary/book on a specific dialect, though.
I believe mainly because dialects varies greatly - even within the same "ken" (prefecture) dialects are not the same...
 
I see. I didn't think about just searching for the words them selves but morethan likely would have come up in some unreadable (for me atleast) Japanese blog.....
 
Incidentally, "yodakii" has slightly different nuance in another region. For instance, it means "noisy and annoying"(騒がしい/うるさい[sawagashii/urusai] in standard Japanese) in my hometown. 😅 I've heard that it's from a(n) classical/archaic adjective よだけし[yodakeshi].
