I agree that getting a soil test will be your first best option. If your soil pH isn't right, any $$ you spend on seed, fertilizer, chemicals, etc would be like taking $100 bills and burning them in your driveway. They won't be effective. Once your soil is re-balanced then you can plant your native seed and fertilize accordingly.
But you're gonna have to provide consistent and frequent moisture to the entire area, to get the seeds to germinate. And grass seed is planted only 1/8"-1/4" down, depending on the seed type. So frequent watering is a must.
