I've been doing 60lb dumbells for this exercise for two weeks or so. I can do the weight without a problem, but my left shoulder fatigues after I'm done. I'm not sure if fatigue is the right word, but I feel somewhat of a shooting pain and then the shoulder becomes tired as hell.
Naturally, I want to increase the weight very soon, but this left shoulder pisses me off :/
Opinions?

It may be, perhaps, that the weight you are using is a little heavy and you are stressing thr rotator cuff more than it can handle.
I personally would suggest resting it for a week then trying with lighter dumbbells and see if it feels any better...also, perhaps you need someone to assess your form as perhaps you are overly rotating or angling the press and thus stressing the joint in a strange angle thus producuing pain not directly in conjunction witht he muscular ache.
Just my thoughtsThose who think they are perfect have more imperfections than those of us seek perfection
