Yes, the word 'spitting' is a gerund, the present participle of the verb 'to spit' that functions as a noun. The present participle of the verb also functions as an adjective.

Examples:

There is a fine for spitting in public. (noun, object of the preposition 'for')

"This is horrible", he said after spitting out the sample. (verb)

He's the spitting image of his father. (adjective)
