It's obvious after you know the answer: instead of running sudo inside
a terminal, you invoke the terminal window with sudo:

 $ sudo xfce4-terminal -x ./testit.sh

In the launcher, uncheck the "run in terminal" box and use the command
above.

Now when the terminal window is closed, testit.sh gets killed.
