When Can I Start Taking Contraceptive Pill?

I was on generic seasonique for five months and bled through every months. I m on week 6 and spotted and continued taking birth control and my period went away while I was on vacation. When I got home it started again so I decided to take the recommended 3 day off. I also just got a prescription for the brand name seasonique which is suppose to be better and have less breakthrough. Once I m done with this 3 day break can I start a while new pack of the brand name seasonique? Should I extend this 3 day break until it runs it s coarse and then start the seasonique? Basically I m trying to start the seasonique as soon as possible! Thanks
