How to stop scam virus notifications

Firefox Push notifications

My firefox push notifications won't stop popping up on my screen, I attempted clicking to disable notifications and won't stop. Keeps saying WARNING! via (bunch of letters and numbers) click here to secure your device. At this point I know it is a way to infect my computer when I just followed a secured link for school in my email and got caught somehow in a web. Hopefully this makes sense, my initial thought to troubleshoot is to uninstall and reinstall Mozilla Firefox?

The https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/push-notifications-firefox#w_how-do-i-revoke-the-notifications-permission-for-a-specific-site should help you block or revoke sites from sending you anymore notifications. These notifications are from sites you have allowed to send you notifications.
