When Dad got the wood stove a little too hot one time, he set the
chimney on fire. He had this thing that looked like a road flare that
he lit off and threw into the stove to put out the fire.

That was the only one he had.
Does anybody know what I'm talking about? Can you still get them?

Google for "Standard Railway Fusee" and you'll get hits galore. The
company is, indeed, out of business it would seem but there are
alternatives to fight such a fire.
