It should be put in /usr/bin, so you should be able to find it. However, you may search it using a wrong name. Do a
dpkg -c the_converted_deb_file.deb to see what the package contains.

However, you should not use alien-converted packages unless absolutely necessary. In this case, you can install firefox by issuing
apt-get install mozilla-firefox
if you have at least 'testing' (sarge) version of Debian.
