After installing pq_search and running contrib package migration:
class InstallSomeContribPackages < ActiveRecord::Migration
def up
execute 'CREATE EXTENSION pg_trgm;'
execute 'CREATE EXTENSION fuzzystrmatch;'
end
def down
execute 'DROP EXTENSION pg_trgm;'
execute 'DROP EXTENSION fuzzystrmatch;'
end
end
It still throws error when migrating the dmetaphone migration:
PG::UndefinedFunction: ERROR: function dmetaphone(text) does not exist

I posted this question for anyone else that struggled with this...
Even with the contrib package I still needed to install the fuzzystrmatch extension.
Try rake db:setup and rake db:test:prepare
If that doesn't work then do the following for each environment:
Locally access you psql in terminal and create extension:
\psql
create extension fuzzystrmatch;
On heroku access your psql db and create extension from terminal:
heroku pg:psql
create extension fuzzystrmatch;
Then rerun migration. Hope this helps save someone else stress.
