Halp! How bad is this?
So I'm regreasing the suspension, working on the driver lower ball joint, when I start thinking "Hmm, I seem to be putting in quite a bit of grease. I'd better stop now before I break something." Sure enough, 
The boot is split, but now I know it's well greased :o
How bad is this? Do I need to get it replaced right away?

your wheel will fall off immediately
Seriously, you can clean out most of the grease and clean the split rubber with some brake cleaner and use super glue to repair the split, this will seal the boot till you have time to change it sometime soon
