He wiped out the Nova Corp which is a pretty strong Alien group. You still have the Kree and the Skrulls but compared to the gauntlet wouldn't matter. Even the Galactus from the fantastic four world is powerless once the guantlet has been assembled. So while perhaps they could have been involved in stopping him assemble the gems there wasn't really time as Thanos was hidden until he made his move for the Power Stone. After that the reason Earth was involved is they happened to hold two of the gems.
Thanos could go through 14 million time streams and be certain to eliminate the mistakes that could undermine his goals but he isn't that maticulous. And he believes he is invincible so wouldn't bother to look.
