Hamsters clean themselves, but if you think s/he's getting a little smelly, a sand bath should do the trick. Get chinchilla sand (SAND, not dust), and put it in a little bowl for your hamster. If s/he is getting smelly very easily, try cleaning the cage a little more often. If the hamster has something sticky or toxic, make sure there's NO OTHER WAY to remove it. Use lukewarm water and moisten hamster, but if water alone won't remove it, use the mildest baby shampoo you can find. Keep water and suds away from the hamster's face, and be sure not to use cold water, because hamsters are susceptible to chills and can get sick.
