Kevin, You should put any filter after the pump. Pumps hate to suck; they are much better at pushing.
Btw. I am using a filter similar to what Nate linked (mine is GE, not Glacier Bay) at the cottage and it works quite well. I throw away the filter each fall, when we winterise the cottage (no problem with freezing). Mind you, I don’t drink the lake water; the filter is there to eliminate the sediment and such.

What do you put in your water to keep it sanitary?

The goal was removing "tank taste", and it has worked well this first year. I plan to change cartridges each season, and need to remember that its one more thing to switch out and drain as part of winterizing, but that's easy. It came with pipe thread fittings, so adapters to PEX would be required.
