If this and if that then that sentence—comma

Hello,

In the sentence "If you clean your room and if you do the dishes, you can go outside with Josh," should there be a comma before "and"?

Thanks for any replies

Chalktower comma before "and" Yes, but it's less important with short if -clauses like these. Just be sure to use the comma if the clauses get much longer. CJ
