Weedkiller on Bermuda seedlings?

Question

I had put down a bunch of fresh soil and planted some bermuda seed about 2.5 weeks ago and set the sprinkler to water for 5 minutes, every two hours, 7 times a day. So, I've already mowed it down as the existing grass and some new weeds grew high enough to start catching the ire of the neighborhood association. Two questions:

Can I put a broadleaf weedkiller on my new grass safely or do I need to wait?

What is this weed that is all over the place? We're really thinking it came in with either the dirt or the grass seed, but either way I want it gone.
