Why would they have made a version with three monsters, then changed it to four monsters after one airing? I believe that the 4-monsters one was used from the first time "Fur" was ever on the show, until the newer version replaced it. I think there is no 3-monsters one.

Well, then, it only aired once. Do you know the episode number this version was on? Maybe someone has the episode (however unlikely it may be)...

fur

There was only one version, with 4 monsters, although at one point in the song the lead monster dances off stage leaving his 3 backups singing a chorus in a 3-shot. Hence the confused memory.
It appears on an old home video (long since out of print) called "monster hits"

Purple cyclorama with silver curtains and a disco ball hanging in the middle.
