Theres no way you can say that definitely bent the frame. I've seen cars that have been in multiple fender-benders, gone off-roading and curb-checking and were still straight.
I'm sure your alignment is out of whack, so I'd take it to an alignment shop first, and if they can get it into spec and the car drives straight, I'd say you're in the clear. :edit: If the car still isn't quite right, or if they can't get it into spec, then its time to make a trip to the body shop :hs:
