Can someone tell me exactly how FVF is used and how it works. Sorry to be so vague, I am just completely lost after attempting to learn from a tutorial.

I actually tend to keep this link handy: msdn on DX9 FVF

In short though, the flags signal what components are present in the structure for each vertex. The order of them is fixed, so there is sort of a 'full' structure that is selected from by the flags.

IIRC, the order is provided here in the order of the defines: FVF Mapping in DX9
FVF's are old hat now though; vertex declarations are the modern equivalent.
