First of all you, yourself do not give your hamster a dust bath, but you can place the dust bath container in the cage. Hamsters use the dust to clean their fur, it will not harm them.

Only allow a dust bath once a month, they don't need it daily.

What do you clean your hamster with?

Hamsters cannot be cleaned. They should NEVER be put under water unless it is a emergency (ex. They walk into and acidic fluid). You can provide then with a dust/sand bath. This will give them a fluffier coat that smells good. Syrian hamsters don't usually like dust baths, so it is better to get it for a dwarf hamster. There is a wide variety of hamster dust bath dust and Chinchilla Sand that can be used.
