You will have to set an icon yourself to an shortcut on the desktop in the Properties via the right-click context menu if the current icon isn't distinctive enough.

You can toggle the browser.shell.shortcutFavicons pref to see if that makes Firefox use the favicon for a desktop shortcut You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
