it's currently on version 3.6.13 but I have been facing this problem for months. I tried completely removing firefox from my applications (on my macbook) and reinstalling but the same problem persists, with websites detecting firefox version 2.0 instead of 3.6.

You need to reset your user agent string, for details see How to reset the default user agent on Firefox.
