Somehow Fastsaler has embedded itself in Firefox. McAfee can't get rid of it, and neither can Antispyware. I'm going crazy trying to get rid of it. Do I just uninstall Firefox and reinstall it?

hello, reinstalling firefox won't help with adware/malware on a system. please perform all those steps instead:

  1. reset firefox (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
  2. afterwards go to the firefox menu ≡ > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
  3. finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the free version of malwarebytes and adwcleaner to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.
