Help unlink/remove duplicate contacts

how do I get rid of duplicate contacts? For instance when I go into my contacts some contacts have 2 or more entries in the list while some others have one entry but when I go to say send a text message the contacts number may show up more than once even though they are only listed in contacts once.
