It depends on which area you live in, among other things.
Some places may get as few as two or three firefighters initially, with others on the way in from other jobs. Over 70 percent of all USA firefighters are volunteers, meaning they may be busy with other jobs or too distant to be of much help.
In cities, there is enough danger of fire spreading that taxpayers are willing to pay full-time professional firefighters to be on 24-hour standby, with the best equipment and training available. A typical response to a house fire in a crowded neighborhood may be 3 engines with 5 firefighters each, two or more ladder or tower companies, and other support equipment and personnel.
