Using async setState

you can wrap the setState in a Promise and use async/await as below

setStateAsync(state) {
    return new Promise((resolve) => {
      this.setState(state, resolve)
    });
}

async handleChange(input) {
    await this.setStateAsync({ load: true });
    this.props.actions.getItemsFromThirtParty(input);
    await this.setStateAsync({ load: false })
}

Wrap the rest of your code in the callback of the first setState:

handleChange(input) {
  this.setState({
    load: true
  }, () => {
    this.props.actions.getItemsFromThirtParty(input)
    this.setState({ load: false })
  })
}

With this, your load is guaranteed to be set to true before getItemsFromThirtParty is called and the load is set back to false.

This assumes your getItemsFromThirtParty function is synchronous. If it isn't, turn it into a promise and then call the final setState within a chained then() method:

handleChange(input) {
  this.setState({
    load: true
  }, () => {
    this.props.actions.getItemsFromThirtParty(input)
      .then(() => {
        this.setState({ load: false })
      })
  })
}

Here's a typescript implementation of an "async-await" setState:

async function setStateAsync<P, S, K extends keyof S>(
  component: Component<P, S>,
  state:
    ((prevState: Readonly<S>, props: Readonly<P>) => (Pick<S, K> | S | null)) |
    Pick<S, K> |
    S |
    null
) {
  return new Promise(resolve => component.setState(state, resolve));
}
