We've really had enough of microbes... how do we even kill the ones that live inside a fumigant gas? At temperatures that can melt lead? And survive intense solar radiation, with strong UV rays?
No life as we know or can reasonable infer, could survive on the surface of Venus.
The cloud layers where the potential life that is possibly responsible for this phosphine are quite mild temperature wise and not terribly harsh when it comes to UV exposure. They would also likely be dependent on a dry, low oxygen, and very low ph environment.
Indeed, one of the major hurdles for a sample return mission would likely be keeping such extremophiles alive, not finding a way to kill them. Removing them from their acidic environment or exposing them to air may well be fatal.
