I use fiddler more than Firebug and Wireshark because:
Firebug only works in Firefox and I do most of my work in Chrome. Also, Firebug is a Firefox extension so it can be a little clumsy at times.
Wireshark is often overkill when you want to debug http traffic. With Fiddler it's easier to see the http sent and the response with just a click. With Wireshark, the process to recompose the packets and uncompress them is not as easy.
Fiddler can do https with just one click. With Fiddler you spy on encrypted traffic and there's nothing special to install.
