File recovery software is generally crafted for a specific fileystem type.

FUSE is not a filesystem but framework for creating a wide array of 
filesystems. 

As such your question is kind of like asking, "Is there a shop that can repair 
my transport vehicle?" The answer to which varies depending on whether you're 
talking bicycle, car, truck, or C-130 transport plane.

In general if you're using a common filesystem, say NTFS or FAT-32, then tools 
that fix those sort of filesystems may work, presuming you're using the correct 
tool for the correct filesystem. 

In some cases, like with sshfs, this isn't really a filesystem you'd fix at all 
as it's just the represenation of files on another host in another filesystem. 
In such case you're repair that filesystem on that host, not through sshfs. 


Given the woolly thinking of the initial quetsion: What is it you're actually 
asking?
