You can get into Perth city in about 20 mins (by taxi) from the Domestic airport, depending on traffic.
Even thought it's a big pain in the posteria to hang about in an airport for 5 hours (done it plenty of times with 2 little people), I'd get yourself from the Domestic to the Internationl airport-not sure if there is still a shuttle or if you have to catch a taxi, check the website-and wait for your flight. By the time you get your luggage and get to the Int, you'll have 2 hours befor you can check in. Not much to do at the Int airport-can only drink so many coffees-
but a least your assured of not missing your AA flight.
Perth is best seen in Summer and over a few days.
