They're both awkward fingerings. I don't remember the part for Belle of the Ball, but I have to say that sometimes composers deserve whatever they get when they write things that any performer would have told them were awkward. That said, the tremolo effect is probably more important than the actual pitches, especially the upper pitch, so you may only need something that comes close.
For F-A try fingering F and opening the LH ring finger hole (the C4/G5 tone hole). The A is flat, but in context it may not matter.
Similarly, for G-Bb, finger G and make the tremolo by opening the middle finger (D4/A5 tone hole). It's not really in tune, either, but may work in the context.
There are, AFAIK, no in-tune alternates for these two intervals - they are notoriously awkward, at least with standard keywork.
