The usual way this is done is to load the page and cause the action
that loads the ajax code. Then use the Script panel to set a
breakpoint. Then reload or re-cause the ajax to load. Firebug will
break into the debugger.

That's a bug. With Firefox it is hard to get this to work correctly, I
keep trying. If you post a test case to the issues list I will try to
get it to work.

Use the javascript keyword 'debugger;' for this, that is a single word
statement like:
debugger;
