If you choose to do the Nitrogen app,use a slo release.Too much of a Nitrogen app can burn your grass where a slo release will prevent that.Nitrogen causes a quick flush of growth and green color but the soil may also need a lime app depending on how acidic the soil is.This will help your plant absorb the Fertilizer you put down and hold it longer. Phosporus also helps as it promotes root growth.Root growth is important also because the deeper the roots are,the more the grass can handle things like drought stress(lack of water in hot summers).Drought stress can kill back grass allowing weeds to move into those bare spots as weeds can take over before the grass grows back and the weeds will choke out the grass.
