Yes, hamsters cannot produce their own vitamin C and require it in their diet. Fresh fruits and vegetables such as bell peppers, broccoli, and strawberries can provide hamsters with the necessary vitamin C to stay healthy. Commercial hamster food may also be fortified with vitamin C.
Mostly just humans (but also guinea-pigs and fruit bats).
Yes, guinea pigs can die from vitamin deficiency, especially a lack of vitamin C. Guinea pigs are unable to produce their own vitamin C and must obtain it from their diet. A lack of vitamin C can lead to scurvy, which is a serious and potentially fatal condition in guinea pigs.

You need your vitamin c
There are some animal sources of vitamin C but that is usually the liver since most animals synthesise their own (unlike humans which need to supplement it). This is why we need to eat fruits and vegetables to get our vitamin C since most of us eat muscle meat which is not a good source of vitamin C. An egg which has not been developed will not have any vitamin C as it is not yet a living creature and does not need or synthesise it's own. A cow's milk has no Vitamin C since cows synthesise their own vitamin C, but human milk does contain it since we do not and our babies will need the supplemental vitamin C.
There is no vitamin C in a fried egg. For vitamin C you need fresh fruits and vegetables.
