You can write the IRS and state that here's the SSN and ask that the records be merged together. Since the SSN won’t change your tax bill, wait until you file next year to use the SSN.

However, I don't know if you can fix this with a 1040X or not. If your question is related to the rebate, you should get the difference that is due to you when you file your 2008 return (in 2009). Of course, you need to file it properly...with the Social Security Number. But I would be trying to clear this up sooner than that by contacting the IRS. Did she receive a W2 for 2007? What ID number (ITIN or SSN) was on that form? Some people who have an ITIN do later (legally) obtain a SSN. However, I don’t know if you can fix this with a 1040X or not.

How can your wife have both? I have reported you. An ITIN is issued to people who don’t have, or are not eligible for, a SSN. How can your wife have both?

Looks like you are trying to get rebate not entitled to. Why would you use ITIN if she had a social? If she is not a citizen (?) you can't get the rebate. VERY SUSPICOUS.
