Make sure you got no adware plugins and programs on your PC. Typically, it is the cause for such problems. Scan with adwcleaner, spyhunter or other programs. Dosearch is associated with such malicious programs and might be reinstalled. Another possible issue is hijacking Firefox shortcut. Right-click on FF shortcut, choose properties and see if there is no mention of dosearches.
Basically, to remove dosearches.com automatically you may simply run AdwCleaner program (which is a free application). This is not a malware cleaner but rather an adware cleaner, and it should help you get rid of htis hijacker at no cost. Alternatively, you may try this guide on removing browser hijackers manually, but this might not be as best idea as automatic removal with the help of AdwCleaner.
