If you are new to security and the firewall has to be installed now, then get someone who knows how to do it or you put your company at risk.
At the same time start learning IT-security. First, get a solid foundation of TCP/IP, then go over to general IT-security for example with the curriculum of CompTIAs Security+. After that come back to your firewall.

I agree with @Karsten Iwen regarding immediate steps.
I'd also suggest reading a good book. Something like this one by Nazmul Rajib:
http://www.ciscopress.com/store/cisco-firepower-threat-defense-ftd-configuration-and-9781587144806
If you can't afford the book, then read up on free Cisco Live presentations - there are dozens on the topic of FTD and firewalls.
