How to set up flat rate shipping per item category per country?

Hello everyone, new to setting up Square site so need some help!

1. Is there a way to set up different flat rates for different countries for 1 item?

Essentially I need 3 flat rates per single item for the different countries I sell to (Canada, US, rest of the world). In total I need 3 flat rates per item category (I have 5 item categories so I need 18 different flat rates)

Example, Item category - Stickers

Canada - $1.3

US - $1.8

International - $3.20

Item category - Art prints

Canada - $2.5

US - $4

International - $8

However, when I create a shipping profile, add selected items, add the countries I can ship to (Canada, US, rest of the world) it only lets me add ONE flat rate for ALL countries, there's no option to add a flat rate for Canada, a flat rate for US and a flat rate for international.

So I thought "Okay, I'll make a shipping profile for each country/region."

So I make 3 profiles

Stickers to Canada

Stickers to US

Stickers to International.

However, I can't have the same items in different profiles. For example, if I add a selected item to one profile (example Stickers to Canada), then try to add the same sticker to another profile (example Stickers to US) it removes it from initial shipping profile it was added to.

Am I missing something here or am I just unable to do that?

2. When people buy items from two different shipping profiles, the shipping price combines together. Is there a way to have Square go with the higher shipping profile only rather than combining?
