Dammit is the byproduct of the sort of phonetic spelling nonsense that should be banned in schools.

"Damn it" is a sentence. "Dammit" is an interjection used primarily in conversation. Minor phonetic adjustments are appropriate. Moreover, you can vary the spelling to convey distinctions in how it's spoken - "damnit" if slowly, "dammit" if quickly.
