At low levels I found chaining wasn't as efficient. Summon until you get a max level pet, if somewhere like WC with lots of high levels around ask if they can buff up your pet and go to town. Suck up the 50% exp and let your pet do his thing. Even if you can't get buffs, a max level pet vs. a lower level one will make a big difference.
Early on pet mana cost is very high proportionately to your mana. You will notice in late 20s/early 30s pet mana cost relative to total mana starts to drop. That's when pet chaining becomes very efficient.
And yes, get those focus items ASAP, most important item you can have 1-50.
