If you are a good care taker, your gerbil probably will not need a bath in water. Gerbils do like to take dust baths. The pet store sells the dust and your gerbil may be a little apprehensive at first, but give him/her some time and they will roll around in the dust in no time. It will be kinda shy. But after a couple minutes it'll hop in there.
