A filtered fluid pump spray dispenser and applicator assembly includes a container having a pump spray mechanism connected to a fluid feed tube immersed in a fluid to be dispensed. The open end of the fluid feed tube is covered by a porous and permeable filter, which filters particulate matter from the fluid during spray mode fluid dispensing. The pump mechanism and fluid feed tube may be removed, and fluid contained in the filter applied directly to a surface in direct application mode fluid dispensing.
