I have a front lawn that needs some major help. Trying to determine if I need to tear it up or try to condition it.

I have a skunk that is digging small holes, but when I dig for grubs I don't find anything.

Any thoughts on what to do? I am in lower Michigan, so the lawn has still not fully come back yet.enter image description here

FWIW, that looks better than my Wisconsin front lawn, which I've partially given up on and will convert to a garden. I'd condition your lawn - far fewer weeds than mine, for one thing. Aeration and top-dressing with compost should work wonders. Keep it well-watered, too, especially if we head into drought again (1 inch a week from 1 watering a week). I'd avoid any herbicides this year, unless you have crabgrass (and then not even that if you're reseeding).
