Does the T7 have a sensor self cleaning?

Negative, the Rebel T7 does not have a "self-cleaning" sensor.  All that the self cleaning process does is rapidly shake and vibrate the sensor, which supposedly causes dust to come free and fall off inside of your camera somewhere.

Good afternoon! Are there any kits you would suggest to clean the Rebel T7 sensor? I have heard mixed opinions on what size swab I would need and I have had a difficult time finding good kits. Thank you!

The camera has a cleaning function that automatically removes dust from the image sensor when the power is turned on or off, or when the camera shuts off in Power Saving mode. This cleaning function can be activated whenever you like, or shut off entirely. ... Set the camera's power switch to < ON >.

The above claim is totally incorrect.  The Rebel T7 only has manual sensor cleaning mode.  It is not self cleaning.

You are probably thinking T7i, not T7.
