If someone hacked you I would think there would be more than deleted products. Number 3 is if you delete a user from your board in Admin => Edit Users you will delete all there reviews and products. The script asks for confirmation. You say only you add companies to the install yet I registered a username and am able to upload a company. I would tend to think one of the 3 scenerio's would explain this. There would be no way to get them back unless you repost them. That or restore a database backup prior to when they disappeared.
Backing up the usual path to mysqldump is usr/bin/mysqldump. You may need to contact your host for the explicit path if thats not it. You also need to have a backup path set on the server and a directory set to 777 to accept the backup sql files. I find phpmyadmin much easier to export a database backup personally.
