Go to Petco. They sell these bath towlettes for dogs. Like the ones for babies? Exactly like those. They even come in the same type of packaging as the baby wipes. They are called "Insta Baths" they are for between baths. You wipe your doggie every day with them and they have different odor with aloe vera for their coat. You should really just bathe yoour pet once a week at the most, or twice monthly. With these wipes, it will be easier to keep him clean on a daily basis.
Also, in the same isle, there should be a aroma spray for their coat. It's a perfumed dog spray you can use after you clean them. Alot of dogs clean themselves and therefore stink themselves up. Try this, it should be helpful.
You might want to try some Aloe Vera shampoo for your dog. Dogs can't sweat so his skin might be dry or greasy. Check it out.

variety of reasons: Certain illnesses and parasites can cause stink, your veterinarian can tell you more. A poor quality food can be difficult to digest and cause gas, and just cause the bad odor too. Try Nutro choice lamb and rice. It doesn't have corn in it, which usually dries out the skin of schnauzers and also most our allergic to corn.
Also might try a different shampoo, something with oatmeal.
If you are going to use towelettes, just get the ones for babies. It is less expensive and works great. Really helps around the eyes too.

Your dog is hooked on glue.
Sure, it seems harmless at first.
A little glue here and there after a tough day of wagging the tail. But believe me, it's not so cute when he's stealing kibble from the neighboring poodle to trade for his stuff.
By now, he's probably waking up each morning, licking himself for whatever glue residue he can get. You know, to help get over the sick feeling by having a little "hair of the dog".
By shampooing him, you're only telling him that it's ok, that you will cover for him. That makes you a glue addict enabler.
There is really only one cure, and that is a 12 step glue program.
Take him to his first one. All he has to say is that he has lost control with glue. No one will be hard on him. They will simply suggest that he stick around.
And for God's sake, what are you feeding him?

I'm assuming you mean stink....
Its not normal for a dog to be stinky a couple days after a bath. She might have a skin infection going on...get her into the vet. She might just need some antibiotics.

He could have a health problem. They shouldn't smell too bad after you have given them a bath. It could be a skin condition or something more serious. Talk to the vet about it.

maybe on the occasions that he does go outside he likes to do what my puppies do and find the stinkiest portion of the yard and roll around in it...disgusting, i know but dogs do love to do it. last week i let my dogs out shortly after their bath, one of them found a dead worm in the grass and thought it appropriate to roll around on it, meaning the bath was negated..... that could be your schnauzers problem with stink, as well. also, how are his ears? infected dog ears smell bad, even after a bath....best of luck with your smelly pup!!

What does he stick to? Is it like when you rub a balloon on your head and then it sticks to the wall? Or maybe he swallowed some magnets and now you can't get him off the fridge?

Is he sticking to the floor, to the shower curtain, to his cage, what?
If he sticks that bad, it may be a blessing in disguise, you can get rid of the chain for a while and just let him sit there, stuck to the wall...

I think you mean stink - anyways, try changing his food. Could be something in the food is causing the smell on his skin.
