Without specific problems you won't get specific answers
In general: Dash dance until Marth makes a move that you can punish, then run in and grab him, Up-throw, Up-Air and then cover him when he's trying to come down.
Don't just run in and shuffle. If enemy Marth dash dances in return and tries to bait your shuffle approaches, don't shuffle approach, instead just run straight at him and dash cancel jab into grab (this is not safe, use it as a mixup).
When getting edgeguarded, try to go very high, but you're probably dead anyway.
When edgeguarding, it's really easy to follow Marth far out, especially with nair and bair, if he tries to stop you he will die anyway.
Or just wait on the ledge.

You can also lightshield on the edge(facing it ofc), and when marth uses the up-B, fox(and other heavy chars) will fall straight into the ledge for a guaranteed grab.
