I have a pitiful lawn that is full of weeds and bare spots. I would like to "take dominion" over my lawn, but don't know where to start. What is the best time of year to kill weeds and re-seed? Anything I can do now, in the short term, to improve the condition of my existing grass?

Any advice is appreciated.
