Gerbil bites, like any other kind of wound, can get infected. Take all the precautions you would for any other kind of animal bite--clean the wound thoroughly and use an antibiotic ointment, like Neosporin, to help prevent infection.

No, unless they become infected or the bitten person has an impaired immune system. All rodent bites have the potential to become infected, so having a current tetanus shot would be prudent.
