Firefox snap cannot update when running, so you are getting a message 
about it being available when Firefox is running.

Quit Firefox and wait. Or quit FireFox and run Settings|Software 
Updater. Or quit FireFox and type in the terminal this command:

$ sudo snap refresh (my preferred method)
[enter password, press return/enter]

I prefer the later method for snaps, because snap updates via 
Settings|Software Updater seem to be hit and miss (mostly miss) outside 
of the terminal command.
