Use a 301 redirect:

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?xxxstaging.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ www.xxxlive.com/ [R=301,L]


This will redirect users and the search engines to the new site and the proper pages as well. Search engines will also then associate the old URLs with the new URLs and eventually replace them in the search results.
