Do dogs have a better sense of smell than cats?

A domestic cat can smell with roughly 200 million smell-sensitive receptors (humans have 5 million). A domestic dog can range from as low, in comparison, as 125 million to as high as 220 million depending on the breed. Scenthounds receptors are obviously on the higher end of the scale. On an average the cat can smell better than the dog but the specific winner goes to the Dog breed of Bloodhound, which can have as many as 300 million. This makes them a clear winner in breed but not in genus.

How does the information from the brain goes back to the sense organ?

Information doesn't go from the brain to a sense organ, its the other way around. Sense organs send information to the brain via afferent pathways of the PNS (peripheral nervous system). How this works is dependent on what sense your talking about. The basic outline for how senses work is a specialized receptor cell gets stimulated (light sound etc) and then sends an action potential to the thalamus where it is then routed to a specific cortex of the brain. Olfaction (smell) is the only sense that doesn't get routed by the thalamus.
