I can't see my .htaccess files in Firefox FTP.

The following is the answer provided by Firefox FTP support page:
Files with a period in front of them are considered 'hidden' in the FTP world.
To display these files go to Tools->Options->Show Hidden Files

But I could not find the "Show Hidden Files" in all the tabs of Options.
I would appreciate if someone could provide the exact location.

Its the options for the add on , not the browser itself.

In the browser click Tools>>Addons and find FireFTP, click it once to highlight and choose the Options button there.
