We water it everyday, what can we do to get rid of these weeds and have our grass grow faster. Do we add fertilizer? What kind? Please help us out!!!!!!!!!

Well I live in So.Cal as well, and added St. Augustine last year. The first year you will probably get weeds, crabgrass etc. I didnt add any chemicals or sprays. I just manually went around and pulled the weeds and crabgrass from the roots. Pretty much the 1st year every week I would walk out and check around for any new weed growth and then pull. One year later now and there are no more weeds. I might of had one or two towards the edge that faces the street. You will get a few here and there because the seeds will travel and might land in the dirt.
