What you could do is completely clean the cage (I know you’ve done this a few times, sorry!) only place plastics or hard materials back so leave any wood toys out as mites can burrow.
Don’t use hay or any bedding like that, for now maybe just use paper bedding or cut up some toilet tissue and don’t put any food in. Just for now feed only food you’ve cleaned. So wash a carrot or some seeds things like this.
I know it seems excessive, but if the bugs are still there then it is very likely they are on or in the hammie somewhere and you need to go vets.

Can I wash all of his food? I usually wash cucumbers etc, but not seeds. I'll have to order paper bedding online, I guess. I have not seen anything on my local pet store.
Thank you for your recommendations. I'll do that. The worst part is the last time I cleaned his cage I made sure it's all clean and I scrubbed real hard with sponge and vinegar.
