Can I Miss Inactive Birth Control Pills To Avoid A Period?

Hello! So I have been on Tri Sprintec for a year or so now and I recently had breakthrough bleeding about 2 weeks into my birth control pack and it has been a good 8 days of bleeding and now my pack is over today. Can i just start my new pack on sunday without taking the inactive pills for seven days? i really dont want another full 7 days of a period.
