Trying to use SCCM to script uninstall of multiple unsupported Firefox applications

I have ~500 end users that have unsupported versions (half have a combination of unsupported and supported versions) of Firefox which show up on our Security breach website. I've been trying to create a script to use in SCCM however, I've noticed all these versions are a combination of the following:

32 bit versions showing up in C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe. Some 32 bit versions do not completely uninstall (CFG files remain as well as a maintenance folder). 64 bit versions showing up in C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe. Most versions are EXE however, I've come across some MSI. I believe I have the detection method down: If (Get-WmiObject -Namespace root\cimv2\sms -class SMS_InstalledSoftware | Where {$_.ARPDisplayname -like 'Mozilla Firefox*'}) 

   {
   }

else 

   {
   Write-Host "Installed"
   }

I'm using the following uninstall script which works once and sometimes will not remove if both 32 and 64 bit applications are present:

Get-WmiObject -Class win32_product -Filter "Name like 'Mozilla Firefox%'" | ForEach-Object {$_.Uninstall()}

Any help would be greatly accepted: Thank You MISHologic
