Did both words begin with a labial stop in Classical Latin?
Oops, sorry for missing this question: yes for the first word, and the second word did not exist in
Classical or Vulgar Latin (but in Mediaeval Latin it did begin with a bilabial stop).
No worries, of course!
Oh, interesting. Was the second word a loan from a non-Italic Indo-European language?

Rather, it is a verbal derivation of such a loan.

Was the source of the loanword a Celtic or Germanic language?

No
Fifth declension?
No.
I should note that while it does descend from Latin, it does not descend from a noun.
