Default Lawn problem: chinch bugs or something else?

hi.

my lawn looks exactly the same. in the dry yellow dead patches i put some
soil down since it was lower than the rest of the lawn. i also planted some
seed. i always hear people mention chinc bugs and grubs. let me know if
you determine your bug? i live in southern ontario. would it be posible to
look for bugs now?

someone told me to cut out both ends of a can and place on grass where the
dead meets the living grass. fill with water and wait 10-15 minutes and any
bugs will float to the surface.

i am going to put some weed n' feed down soon. Question: when should i use
insecticide? before, after or at the same time as i weed and feed?
