You might also want to try org-board:
https://github.com/scallywag/org-board
It offers archiving, diffing between archives, and anything `wget' can
do (see its manual for more details). I haven't integrated it with
Firefox, but if you can
a) Get the current URL from Firefox,
b) Send it to Emacs,
c) Open a dedicated web bookmark file buffer, create a heading for
the URL, and run `org-board-archive',
then org-board would take care of archiving the site exactly as you see
it in the browser.
Cheers,
Charles
