See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diethylamine
The total charge of diethylamine equals zero & not +1.

the total charge of an alkyl amine equals 0
the total charge of an ammonium equals +1

this is correct (with a rounding off error, which equals +2.10-6).

May be better define the total charge of your molecular system, and
then run the code. You could also use the R.E.D. tools or R.E.D.
Server at q4md-forcefieldtools.org to derive RESP charges and generate
force field libraries.
