Lawn care novice needs help!!

I am COMPLETELY new to caring for a lawn so please excuse my ignorance on these issues. I live in southwest Iowa in a new construction home. My builder sodded the front and seeded the back. He did a terrible job, however, because the ground is very lumpy, full of weeds, and (worst of all) the grass in the front doesn't match the back, so there's a ridiculous line in my side yard. I basically want to nuke it and start over. I want to plant a nicer grass that is softer with thinner blades. I need assistance with this process. Should I rent a sod cutter? Should I use a pesticide? What grass should I replant? How should I flatten/till the soil? Help!!!
Thank you.
