Take a toothbrush and rub the spots that need cleaning with a non scented tearless hedgehog shampoo. Then rinse lightly.
If you have a large sink in your kitchen, fill it about a an inch with water (just enough so it isn't blocking the animal's mouth and nose). Gently pour lukewarm water over the hedgehog, taking caution not to get it in the face. If your hedgie is really dirty, you can use mild kitten shampoo and gently rub it in with a toothbrush. Rise your hedgie, making sure all shampoo (if you used any) is gone. GENTLY scub the quills with a toothbrush to get all those places that parasites can hide.
When you take your hedgie out of the bath, make sure his/her feet and paws are clean, there is no shampoo resdue, and that there is no water at all on the face. IMPORTANT: Before you put your hedgie back into it's cage, be certain it is dry. Hedgies get ill very fast when wet. Wrap your hedgie in a towel (make sure it can breath!) and pat it dry. You can also put your hairdrier on low (hold it at least a foot away, and direct the air away from the face) to spped up the process.
This would be a good time to trim the hedgie's nails if in need of it. Also, before you put your hedgie in it's cage, make sure the nose is OK. Sometimes their noses run if they get a little water in them. pat the nose with a tissue when this happens, and check back every 1/2 or so to make sure it doesn't run more than twice.

Guinea pigs clean themselves with a milky white substance that is produced in the corner of their eyes. They rub this substance on their face with their front paws. They clean the rest of their body by licking or nibbling on the fur. They then clean their nails with their front teeth.
Hedgehogs clean themselves in much the same way that most small animals do. They clean themselves by licking their fur.
They sort of lick their paws and rub them against their face.
They also reach round to clean other parts of their body.
It licks its fur. It cleans itself pretty much only when it is by itself, but if it knows its owners very well and can trust them, he or she will do it by them.
They really need a large cage with an exercise wheel. I recommend the Carolina Storm Wheel.
It's rather funny to watch. They will stand straight up on their thin, long legs, and will curl to the side. They'll bring one hind leg up, and very slowly scratch like a dog or cat would.
The present tense of "bathe" is "bathing" - still pronounced with a long A as in bathe.
The verb of bath is bathe. As in "to bathe somewhere" or "to bathe in something".
"I will bathe".
Bathe is correct.
You can bathe a dog anytime.
I bathe mines in the sink if its bigger then 5 inches then bathe it in the bath tub.
The correct term is "bathe someone." "Bath" is typically used as a noun referring to a container for washing or the act of washing oneself.
That is the correct spelling of "bathed" (past tense of to bathe, to wash).
