Probably you mean the iptables service and and the iptables binary and libraries nor the iptables part in the kernel. If firestarter runs as it's own services and has it's own rules file, then the firestarter and the iptables services would even conflict; means one would override the settings of the other, depending on start order of both services. It makes sense then to chkconfig iptables off Firestarter is though a frontend for the iptables tool which modifies the netfilter part / IP tables in the kernel space. So don't remove the iptables RPM from your system.
