You can't use dig to find fossils. When used in the overworld, dig is like an escape rope, you can use it to leave a cave instantly. To dig underground, you need the explorer kit, which is found in Eterna city.

If you are in a cave with the pokemon you have taught dig to, go on the pokemon screen, click on the pokemon and it should come up with dig click on it, it gets you out of caves but not find fossils
