Put a box collider on the fire, set it to IsTrigger and child it to the fire. The add that script to the box:

 function OnTriggerStay(other:Collider)
 {
     if(other.gameObject.tag=="Player")
         healthbar.health-=damage;
 }

This is considering that your player health is a static variable (which is fine in this case) in a PlayerScript.js

Change as you need.

Be careful that this is called every frame, so you might want to temper the damage with some kind of timed damage. In this case, you would have to think slightly differently.

 private isIn:boolean;
 vat timing:int;
 
 function Start(){
    isIn = false;
 }
 
 function Update(){   
    if(isIn){
        timing = Time.time;
        if(timing%2)
            healthbar.health-= damage;
 }}
 
 function OnTriggerEnter(other:Collider){
    if(other.gameObject.tag == "Player") 
       isIn =true;
     }
 function OnTriggerExit(other:Collider){
    if(other.gameObject.tag == "Player")
       isIn =false;
     }

As I said you need to chnage them to your settings What is the name of your script where the health is? And is the health variable static?
