Do bum bath require any soap or shampoo? Or just like warm water?
 
I think it depends on how grubby they are! Warm water would do I think for mild soiling but a baby shampoo (or piggie one) would be needed if they were more dirty. I wouldn’t use soap though, it’s often quite harsh and could irritate / dry out their skin
 
My boar smell so bad I want to give him a bum bath or anything that helps
 
I’d just try with warm water first. You don’t want to be use animals soaps etc if water will do the job.
