Antimalware and Antivirus and IS basically doing the same work but IS add some other feature thats it.So i think you don't need extra Antimalware product with BIS ,yes as a on demand if you wish you can add MBAM or Hitman pro.

Don't think this is the right location since you're not comparing two different products. On topic, if you practice good surf habits you probably won't need it but if you want a second opinion the one I recommend the most is malwarebytes.

No, none at all. Metaphorically speaking, Bitdefender is built to stand on it's own 2 feet.

1 or 10 AVs won't protect the system, it would be more ideal to install 'another type of security' (software) of isolating the areas of infections. Such as, a sandboxing or virtualisation application - but only if compatible.

Else another recommendation is to perform regular system (image) backups, pick your poison.
