I drilled & filled mine sometime around now last year, and by the end of June, they were already toast.

I've been pretty successful killing the re-emerged "seedlings" with 12 ounces of 41% Glyphosate and 7 ounces of Amine 400 (2 4-D) in 3 gallons of water. I don't usually have to hit them but once.

SPRING/SUMMER FIRE DOES NOT KILL SWEETGUMS, it just kills the portion above ground. This unleashes a fury from hell of sprouts a month or so later exponentially increasing you sweetgum stem count. Your best chance with fire would be, as Duckman said, right before the leaves change in Sept Oct.
Do yourself a favor and spot spray sweetgums in late summer first, then burn following spring.

This may be true if the fire is not timed properly. But I have sites I have burnt that were coming up very thick in 4-5 foot tall sweetgums, I sent a really hot fire through them in September and a year later there might be a dozen sweetgums left. Timing of fire on sweetgums is everything!

The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.
