This is my current code. I've managed to get one next enumeration but I want a third nesting to replace me having to write 1.1.1, 1.1.2 etc.
beginenumerate
item Top Levek
beginenumerate
item Second Level
beginenumerate
item Third Level
endenumerate
endenumerate
endenumerate
This gives me
1 Top Level
1.1 Second Level
i Third Level
My desired output is
1 Top Level
1.1 Second Level
1.1.1 Third Level
How do I achieve this?
Also, how do I remove the indentation on the third level so it is inline with the second level?

You can use the enumitem package to produce:
Here's the code:
documentclassarticle
usepackageenumitem
setlist[enumerate,1]label=arabic*
setlist[enumerate,2]label=theenumi.arabic*
setlist[enumerate,3]label=theenumii.arabic*
begindocument
beginenumerate
item Top Levek
beginenumerate
item Second Level
beginenumerate
item Third Level
endenumerate
endenumerate
endenumerate
enddocument
The important bits are the lines
usepackageenumitem
setlist[enumerate,1]label=arabic*
setlist[enumerate,2]label=theenumi.arabic*
setlist[enumerate,3]label=theenumii.arabic*
These specify what you want the labels to look like. I highly recommend reading the package manual if you need to tweak further. It's very to easy to read.
Edit TO get the indentation in the OP you can use:
documentclassarticle
usepackageenumitem
setlist[enumerate]
leftmargin=0pt, labelindent*=0pt, labelwidth=0pt,align=left
setlist[enumerate,1]label=arabic*
setlist[enumerate,2]label=theenumi.arabic*
setlist[enumerate,3]label=theenumii.arabic*
begindocument
beginenumerate
item Top Level
beginenumerate
item Second Level
beginenumerate
item Third Level
endenumerate
endenumerate
endenumerate
enddocument
to give:
EDIT II As Mico says in the comments, for the required indentation it is easier to use setlist[enumerate] wide=0pt .

This solution doesn't address the OP's objective to "remove the indentation on the third level so it is inline with the second level".

@leandriis - The OP has stated that he/she does not want a period (aka "full stop") at the end of the numeric labels.
