Water is a carrier of the product so we recommend using at least 2 gallons of water to ensure you are getting the right amount of product into the ground to control the pre-emerging weeds over a 1,000 to 2,000 square foot area. Once the product is down, it is recommended that you water the product in again to activate it. Please consult the product label for application.

Dimension 2EW Herbicide would be a good option for sandbur. A granule option for pre-emergent of grassbur using the same Dithopyr active ingredient would be Hi-Yield Turf & Ornamental Weed and Grass Stopper with Dimension.
Pre-emeregent application of Dimension 2EW or Pendulum 2G will kill sandburs. The treated area should not be disturbed during this period and should be watered in thoroughly for best results. As always, read and follow label directions carefully. Also remember that it may take a couple of years to eliminate all the burs hiding in your lawn. We recommend that you contact your local cooperative extension office and speak to the master gardener on staff as he/she may be able to tell you what has worked best in your region and also the exact time to apply the products for the best result in your region.
Depending on what type of lawn you have, Hi Yield 2, 4-D will treat sticker bur actively growing. We recommend also to make sure there is an adequate amount of water being applied to your turf as sometimes lack of water can cause sticker bur spread.
Since poa annua and cool season grasses are so closely related, there are few products that will kill the poa annua without also harming the lawn. The only one we are currently aware of is called Prograss which can kill & prevent poa and can be applied at seeding, however it can only be applied to residential lawns by licensed applicators. You may want to see if a service local to you can provide this chemical treatment to your lawn.
Your only other option would be to spot-treat with a Roundup-type product and then reseed with the desirable grass type in those areas. You can use a pre-emergent like Dimension 2EW or Pendulum 2G in the fall and spring when you are not over seeding to help prevent the poa from emerging. Typically a split treatment in the fall will yield to longer and better prevention of the weeds.

Generally, when tank mixing various herbicides, you should refer to all product labels for tank mixing restrictions, and follow the most restrictive label limitations for each of the products being used in the tank mix. If mixing is not prohibited on the labels, you should then make a small jar test for compatibility purposes before mixing a full tank.
Keep in mind that Dimension 2EW, being a pre-emergent herbicide, should be activated by 1/2" or more of rainfall or irrigation after the application, whereas the Gordons Ornamec should be applied to dry grass when no rainfall is expected in the next 24 hours. For this reason, 2 separate applications would likely be the better course of action.
