If you're using wget or curl, you're likely doing so from the FreeBSD command shell via SSH. curl is pre-loaded as part of the pfSense system, I believe. If you get to a command prompt you can type curl –help to get all of the parameters that can be used.
If you want wget for some specific reason, it's as simple as pkg install wget from a shell prompt. It's not listed as a package in the pfSense GUI.

curl is in the base system, so is fetch. For most thing you'd need or want wget for on a firewall, fetch is fine, and curl will work if fetch will not. There's really no need for wget.
