Perhaps fullscreen is not set to hide your toolbars and stuff while in fullscreen? Please try the following to enable this feature:

  1. Go to about:config in the Firefox address bar
  2. Click the I'll be careful button
  3. Locate the browser.fullscreen.autohide boolean
  4. Change the value to true

Let us know if this fixes the issue.

Note: You may need to restart Firefox for the settings to take effect.
