ICMP protocol won't work over SOCKS, but you can employ nmap to do TCP ping. Check this l4ping to see how to do that.

    I have some SOCK5 proxy made through SSH tunnel as 127.0.0.1:8080 (8081, 8082, etc). I want to ping a website through different proxies to find which one provides a faster route.

    How can I use the ping command or similar ones in Ubuntu terminal to do? Ultimately, I wish to write a bash script for the whole comparison.

    Correct, SOCKS5 only supports TCP and UDP, so you could also theoretically do a UDP ping, but support for UDP seems a bit less reliable in SOCKS servers, probably because it's not often used.

    P.s. ping is ICMP not IGMP
