    Summary: We advance the classification of fusion categories in two directions. Firstly, we completely classify integral fusion categories -- and consequently, semi-simple Hopf algebras -- of dimension \(pq^{2}\), where \(p\) and \(q\) are distinct primes. This case is especially interesting because it is the simplest class of dimensions where not all integral fusion categories are group-theoretical. Secondly, we classify a certain family of \(\mathbb Z/3\mathbb Z\)-graded fusion categories, which are generalizations of the \(\mathbb Z/2\mathbb Z\)-graded Tambara-Yamagami categories. Our proofs are based on the recently developed theory of extensions of fusion categories.
