Man, what a bummer. Do you know what year it is?
Even if you don't ship it back, I'd try to get some $$ in return. (That said, jb63 just posted that he's going to be selling a super sweet artist in primo condition, so maybe something to think about.)
At any rate, for repair, don't use superglue (or anything available at your local hardware/home store). Superglue will work to even out the sharp edges on the paint, but it won't bond the fretboard to the wood. It doesn't have the right shear/flex resistance. It's also likely to create high spot underneath and make the gap worse wherever it ends up curing.
What I think you need is something called "panel adhesive," used for bonding carbon fiber/fiberglass auto body or marine parts to other things. I remember posting here about something that I think should work, for a guy in the UK, but don't recall if he ever tried it. I'll check for the link a bit later.
Not sure who you could send it to with a guarantee that it would be like new. Your typical tech/luthier is probably not the right person either unfortunately.
I'd be willing to take a shot at it, but be aware I've never done this repair. (Also, I'm not interested in painting it. The lack of appropriate space for me right now makes painting a bit difficult.)
So assuming I could repair the bond, you'd still see some of the paint damage, though it would likely be a lot less visible and I could level it out to make it feel smoother.
Again, I'll reiterate that I haven't done this particular repair before but believe I understand the issues well enough to try.
