In case you missed it, you should install the Gtk port of Oxygen: 
x11-themes/oxygen-gtk (and x11-themes/oxygen-gtk3 in case you need Gtk 3 
later.)  This isn't a "fake" theme btw.  It's a real Gtk engine and 
pretty much the official Gtk port of KDE's Oxygen style.

Then, to enable Oxygen for Gtk 3 apps, create the file 
~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini and put this in it:

   [Settings]
   gtk-theme-name = oxygen-gtk

For Gtk 2 apps, use this as your ~/.gtkrc-2.0:

   include "/usr/share/themes/oxygen-gtk/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"
   include "/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"
   gtk-theme-name="oxygen-gtk"
   gtk-icon-theme-name="oxygen"
   gtk-fallback-icon-theme="oxygen"

Now Gtk applications will use Oxygen style widgets.

For Firefox, I recommend this:
