We have had this fig tree about (5ft tall) for about 6 months now. We bought

Can we assume you nean fig as in the one that bears fruits of the same
name or did you mean a ficus, perhaps ficus benjamina sometimes
referred to as "weeping fig"?

Even the 'fig that bears fruit of the same name' is a Ficus ;-)

If the former it should be outside, but the ficus needs to be indoors
and are notorious for dropping leaves in a dry atmosphere.

Very true.
