There are various plug-ins you can buy that help with these sorts of 
tasks (see siliconprairie.com for example).

However, a quick work-around for your situation is to delete the 
contents of the pgf catalog and then have FM create and apply the 
formats that are in use.

Open the pgf catalog and click Delete, then delete all the tags. (Quick 
way: Delete the first one, then just hold down the Enter key).
(You may also want to do that with the char catalog.)
 From the File menu, choose Utilities > Create and Apply formats.

FM will repopulate the catalogs with only the tags in use.  (Note, that 
includes tags on master and reference pages.)
