Yes, prodiamine is usually sold under the trade name Barricade. Ideally you don't want to put it down with fertilizer though. Wait until your first mowing or May 1st whichever occurs first even in MA

Also, if you have a small lawn don't just throw down the whole bag. Measure your lawn to get a reasonable idea as to size and apply accordingly. Most ferts bags give you an amount of 0.9 to 1 lb of nitrogen per 1000 sq ft. Some no-names brands give you even lower N as they are cheating you and providing more fillers. Over application is the biggest mistake people make and not only is it not good for the lawn that's when the run-off begins.
