Why does Macbeth fear banguo and feel threatened by his ''being''?
There isn't necessarily a logical reason for the fear, but then fear is not a logical thing. Although Macbeth says, "My fears in Banquo stick deep," he is not totally clear about why he is afraid of him. Most likely, he is afraid that Banquo knows too much about him, knows what the witches said to him and how troubled he was by it, and as a result may suspect Macbeth of murdering Duncan. He is also annoyed by the prophecy of the "fruitless crown" and the prophecy that Banquo will be the father to kings. To prevent this, Macbeth would have to kill not only Fleance but also Banquo, to prevent Banquo from fathering more children. This prophecy does not threaten Macbeth, yet he feels threatened by it.

All of this makes the ball of anxiety which he feels because of the murder focus irrationally on Banquo.

Who did Macbeth hire assassins for?
Professional hitmen. Although with the murderers he hires to kill Banquo, he goes through the rigmarole of rehearsing their grievances against Banquo, arguably this is a sham to make Macbeth feel less like the kind of scum that hires professional hitmen to kill his friend. By the time he hires murderers to kill Macduff's family, there is no more pretence.
Do we know if Macbeth is a guilty man before he meets the witches?
Yes, Macbeth is portrayed as a valiant and respected warrior before he meets the witches. There is no indication of guilt or wrongdoing in his character until the witches plant the seed of ambition and power in his mind.
What is Macbeth saying about the murderer's deeds?
To ensure the murderers will 'dispatch' (kill) Banquo, Macbeth tells them, 'Banquo was your enemy, So he is mine'. Basically, you do not like Banquo and therefore, neither do I. So I encourage you to kill him. It was very manipulative of Macbeth to say this to the murderers. He also threatens their manhood, compares them to dogs and applies various other tactics so he can feel certain they will kill Banquo and Banquo's son, Fleance.
