Microdata, which includes the itemscope and itemtype attributes is part of the HTML5 work so there's no standard doctype available for using microdata with earlier doctypes.

I think you have to change heading of your pages to HTML5. This is probably the best way forward.

But I also think that the consumers of the microdata are unlikely to care what doctype you are using.
