Go organic fertilizer and you do not have to worry about what the content is and you can apply it any time of the year without fear of burning your lawn.
Listen to GSKR I have been in lawn care my entire life and the products available today do not work as good because of EPA and lawsuits. Call True Green and concentrate on enjoying cars.
Personally I would stay away from anything except for organic fertilizer. You also stand much less chance of damaging your lawn, as you alluded to in the OP. Do a search for places near you that would sell it. You can also think of Beneficial Nematodes for you lawn if you have bug problems like fleas, ants and June bugs.
And I agree. Stay away from chemical firts as they're mostly salts. Hit up your local feed store for ground corn meal & soybean meal. This pOOp stuff is amazing but can stink when wet at first. Milorganite | Home Page
This is Zoysia in Western MD with no chemical firts
Look for a 20-20-10 ratio, the best out there INMHO. Apply every 4-6 weeks. Even when hot. Dry felt is water activated an it self won't burn the lawn. Apply at the proper rate, improper rate can burn it. Get a good spreader, not the hand crank one. Water your lawn early in the Am only with an inch of water. Never water at night it can lead to disease/fungus issues. Double pass core aerate in the fall with an over seeding.
