Import CSV to PostgreSQL programmatically - postgresql

Question

I have a csv with 90 columns that I need to import as a table to my pgsql database (and there are several more csv files with large numbers of columns that I would like to apply this method to). My aim is to avoid manually designating 90 separate columns with a CREATE TABLE query.
Column headers in the table should remain the same as in the csv and every column should be imported as a numeric data type with a precision of 2 decimal points.
So far, the only program that I've come across that does this is pgfutter which I have installed successfully. However, the database that I am connecting to is a remote one on AWS and it is unclear where to input the connection details. Also, after installing, I get an error when requesting help info:
$ ./pgfutter --help
-bash: ./pgfutter: Permission denied
Could anyone suggest a workaround in pgfutter or another method to import a csv file with straightforward numeric columns automatically to PostgreSQL ?

It is simple to write a shell script that constructs a CREATE TABLE statement from the first line of a CSV file.
Here is my solution:
#!/bin/bash
# makes a CREATE TABLE statement out of the first line of a CSV file
# usage: mktab <tabname> <CSV file>
if [ -z "$2" -o -n "$3" ]; then
echo "usage: mktab <tabname> <CSV file>" 1>&2
exit 1
fi
IFS=,
first=1
echo -n "CREATE TABLE \"$1\" ("
for col in $(head -1 "$2"); do
if [ $first -eq 1 ]; then
first=0
else
echo -n ', '
fi
echo -n "\"$col\" numeric(10,2)"
done
echo ');'
exit 0
