There's no way for you to use them unless you buy the full fare on Delta.com.

Fly Confirmed for Less does not a have a way for you to pay the ticket with miles (partially or fully) — though you have earned those miles through the steadfast use of your credit card. You are better off getting a 2% cash back CC and use Fly Confirmed for Less than try to accumulate 60,000 miles through purchases and hope it'll be enough to fly from SLC to PHX.
if you book your trip via Delta Vacations, you still get 20% of flights just like FCFL, and you can use your Skypesos too. You might have to book flight+ rental car or flight + hotel, but I think you can cancel the rental car for a refund.

So, you can save more but only if you spend more?

It's not my everyday spend card but I'm happy with the AMEX Delta Reserve Business card. Kickbacks more than pay for the card and I average a few Centurion lounge visits a month where I've never had to wait in line for it. Good RSY & Uber kickback and 1 annual companion pass for free. My everyday spend card is the Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant Amex. Kickbacks pay for it and over the years I've earned Titanium for life with 1.8M points banked up.

I daily use my Chase Freedom Unlimited and the Amex is my backup. I don't like paying fees for credit cards.
If you already have an Amex Gold card can you add it to the perks or am I screwed?

Just call them and they can do it. That's sometimes the better way to do it, you can sometimes get a better intro offer with a normal application.
