Answer
Hello Jessie,
it's really not a good idea to bathe hamssters, while you can bathe a hamster I really don't like to do it because of the hamster probably getting sick. There is small animal shampoo that you can buy and wash them, but dwarf hamsters really love dust baths. If you get some critter trail dust bath  and pour it in a little bowl, the hamster can roll around and get clean. I do it a lot when my hamster's coat doesn't look as fluffy as it normally is.
