In Nevada, the DMV fees are not paid at any dealership. They are paid at the DMV, and are never "included" in a deal. Like you, I've bought many cars in Las Vegas and they've never paid my DMV fees for me. They would facilitate it for me (I don't have to go to DMV), but I give them a check or CC info for the DMV fees.
It doesn't sound like they intentionally ripped you off, more that the two parties had different assumptions of what was being paid by whom.
