I've never used a moss killer. My way of removing moss is to rake it up, or if it is widespread, by dragging a de-thatcher across it. Best done in early spring, or after a rain (or watering), when the ground is wet.

for liquid and sprayer. It may b the cause. Not sure you can overdose with these pellet feeds unles you go over and over the grass. I would give it a liquid feed onl every two weeks from now. You can try seaweed extract whic willstrengthen the root cell strucure rather than just green it up
