Overgrown Avocado - No Flowers No Fruit

We've been here three years and the avocado was here when we arrived. It has never fruited or flowered. We have tried intermittently to fertilize with an acidic fertlizer, and recently have taken to burying fish guts as we come across them.

Thinking about getting someone to top this tree, and then maybe start a regular fertilization schedule to see if I can get some yummy avocados! It doesn't have super low branches because it runs into a citrus tree and loses the who-do-i-love-more battle. That's ok I'll get a picker and get anything within 25ft or so.

Thoughts?
