Don't look at them as incompetent, look at them as needing to be taught how to do it correctly. As their leader, it's your responsibility to give them the resources (and environment) to learn what they need to do. What's more, it's also important to give them a process to follow. If you don't explicitly state your process and give them a means for learning and following it, you'll always be disappointed.
Accept that developers are a diverse set, mostly self-taught, and all have varying degrees of expertise. In order to find the people you'd like, sit down and define what an "ideal developer" looks like (irrespective of whether you're actively hiring). That way you can either hire people that match that description, or work to build up your existing team to match that.
It sounds like your first step is to document your process and to educate your development team on how to do things "your way," and why you do it that way.
