Firefox can be startet via Commandline

How can I run an application with command line arguments in Mac OS

Is there an argument to make it start in 32 bit ?

I know i could select it via finder, but thats no option for my problem

I have solved a similar problem for chrome by creating an Automator "Launcher" which start Chrome with deactivated flash, but for that I need to know whether there is a command line argument to set 32bit.

Maybe by changing systems settings by "default" ?
