Advice needed to repair grass/yard

I bought a foreclosed home two years ago. It had been empty for 2-3 years prior to that. The yard had been let go. The bank that owned it just cut everything back to normal so the grass itself was not in good shape...just patches of grass here and there, and weed filled patches of dirt everywhere else. It looked bad but not horrible the first year. I thought that there was enough grass that it would eventually take back over and fill in. I had a lawn service treat it. But then we had the drought last summer and its just awful now and it's all hill. My question is: should I treat it for weeds first and then reseed? And if so how long should I wait to spread the seed? I would appreciate any suggestions. Laying new sod is not an option.
