Some people create a new profile in Firefox, install the certificates they need, and then distribute the various db files (cert8.db, key3.db and secmod.db) into new profiles using [http://mike.kaply.com/2012/03/30/customizing-firefox-default-profiles/ this method]. I don't recommend this method (and it only works for new profiles).

If you're a real diehard, you can use [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/NSS/Tools/certutil certutil] to update the Firefox certificate databases from the command line.
