How can I create a shortcut of firefox to launch it with particular proxy settings?

For example, I can start firefox in private mode by appending `-private` to Shortcut's target field like "F:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -private

Can I switch proxy in a similar fashion like we can do in chrome using "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google Chrome\chrome.exe" --proxy-server="127.0.0.1:8080"

Why I want to do this? I'm beginning to use Burp Suite, for which I need proxy 127.0.0.1:8080. Only sometimes I use Burp Suite, and hence in normal course I don't want to set up proxy (and use default). I tried FoxyProxy but with that, starting proxy is the one I used last. I want to start firefox with no proxy, and only switch to proxy in special cases (i.e. using special shortcut when I've to use Burp Suite).

Thanks.
