I think you got it wrong at the beginning, presuming you are running a
Linux machine. I do not use ufw although a quick look shows that it uses
iptables. ufw is a front end, like many others, like Shorewall for
instance, to the just about only one mechanism in Linux that can make
firewalls, that is, iptables.

It means that there is no problem at all.  Since both ufw and sshguard
are using iptables, there is nothing to do.

Cheers.
