You can check if you have a Push permission for suspect domain(s) like shown at the bottom of the message and revoke this permission. See "How do I revoke Web Push permissions for a specific site?":

Were you able to revoke the permission like I wrote above?

{Were you able to revoke the permission like I wrote above?} No. Used SpyHunter5 to scan my computer, restart, scan again, restart. Problem solved.

Firefox should not let this in.
