The best thing to wash your blankets in is a washing machine with a good detergent such as Tide or Cheer. You will also want to wash them in hot wash so that they can get fully cleaned.
As long as you wash the baby's bedding in a non-harsh detergent meant for babies, any bedding is ok. Avoid puffy, heavy, and blankets with holes for safety reasons, but be confident using cotten crib sheets and receiving blankets washed with baby safe detergents. anonymous@oola.com
Ferrets are content to sleep in old t-shirts, sweaters, baby blankets, cut off pant legs, etc. These bedding items should be washed at least weekly to keep your ferret smelling fresh. Dirty bedding = stinky ferret. It is best to stay away from any type of bedding that can produce dust, or can become moldy when wet. Ferret respiratory systems are very sensitive to these things.
Yes.
I have always washed my baby's blankets and clothes in regular detergent and both of my kids were fine. However, some babies are allergic to regular detergent and need to have a special one used on their bedding and clothes. As long as your baby shows no signs of a rash after using regular detergent, he/she should be just fine.

Unfortunately, you can not. Take it from one who has done it and now has a twin sized blanket instead of a full sized one! Interestingly, I was looking at wool blankets in a catalog just today. One I saw was advertized as having been made 6" larger, just so it could be washed in a washing machine. Drying is not recommended even for these larger-made blankets. I put my washed wool blankets over a large standing clothes dryer that folds.
Yes, most sleeping bags can be safely washed in a front-loading washing machine on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Be sure to check the care instructions on the sleeping bag before washing.
No, it's all the same type and made with the same care in mind and will not shrink.
