It sounds like you have many hundreds of DMP residues and these
non-integral charges are adding up badly.
If this is the case, you may want to take time to use the RED perl
scripts with multiple orientations of DMP - and possibly multiple
conformations:

This may give you greater confidence in your DMP charges. Then, if you
still must hand-adjust some atoms by .000005 or so, I believe that you
can do this without much guilt.

Adding .00005 charge units to 4 DMP atoms to solve this is
