This is quite easy:

/setblock ~ ~ ~ mob_spawner 0 replace {EntityId:"Creeper"}

Of course you can replace Creeper with any other type of mob, like Pig or Zombie.

Type /give (username here) minecraft:mob_spawner and then get a creeper spawn egg out of creative and right click the spawner with it then you should be good to go.

If you want a mob spawner block (that spawns creepers), just type /give @p mob_spawner, then place and right-click with a creeper egg.

Yes.

The easiest way would be too give yourself a creeper spawner, which can be done by:

/setblock ~ ~ ~ mob_spawner 0 replace {EntityId:"Creeper"}

One alternative though could be too set up a command block clock which spawns in a creeper every [number of seconds]. This can be done with:

/spawnmob <mob> [amount of mobs]

Another way if command blocks aren't your thing would be too once again set up a redstone clock, and connect it too a dispenser full of creeper eggs. While this would not be infinite (at least without commands filling the dispenser up every time one leaves), it would certainly spawn 621 creepers before a refill was required, all without using command blocks.

But if you don't mind the mod option, a very good mod that can do this is the "Too Many Items" mod, which can also do a whole lot more which I'm sure you'll find very interesting.
