Need hub assembly help
Trying to do front hub assembly and wheel bearings on my 95 Honda Accord lx 2.2L Got every taken off but managed to completely strip one of the bolts in the back side of the rotor. Ended up have to cut the head off the bolt to get it out and now need to get new bolts but not sure what the specs or the name of them is. Please help this girl trying to fix her own car.

Since they hold the wheel bearing in place, you need the strength not just the size. Fastenal will have all kinds of bolts that will fit but not necessarily strong enough. Unless you actually tell them what it's for and/or bring the old one along.
The "new member" area is mostly for welcome & introductions. I'll move this over to General Tech where more people will see it.

Local auto-parts stores might have wheel studs, but probably not the hub/bearing bolt.
Yes, a Honda dealer would be the best place to get it; & I bet they're not stupidly expensive at a dealer either.

If I'm looking for a bolt I would definitely bring one so I can compare and ask questions. Auto parts carry all sorts of bolts for different things, meaning not necessarily marked for your application. Many times I've went into advance, went to the back and found something that will work. If you don't go to the back you of course will not find what you are looking for.
The type of bolt you use is important and it is best to just go to the dealership then you will know you have the exact item you need but I assure you one odd bolt out of four will not have your assembly falling off. If that happens you have another issue and maybe you don't need to be doing your own work.
