Problem Statement

Let the letters FF, LL, YY, BB, UU, GG represent different digits. Suppose FLYFLY\underline{F}\underline{L}\underline{Y}\underline{F}\underline{L}\underline{Y} is the largest number that satisfies the equation 8FLYFLY=BUGBUG.8 \cdot \underline{F}\underline{L}\underline{Y}\underline{F}\underline{L}\underline{Y} = \underline{B}\underline{U}\underline{G}\underline{B}\underline{U}\underline{G}. What is the value of FLY+BUG\underline{F}\underline{L}\underline{Y} + \underline{B}\underline{U}\underline{G}?
