Issues with SQLite Table - Specifically foreign keys

Okay the main issue I am having is I have a table that should not have any duplicate entries. This is because I was hoping to have a Primary Key which would be referenced in a separate table.


From what I understand about normalization it is better to have your database designed in this fashion. So right now I have a table that has a bunch of duplicate entries (there should be only 6 unique entries but there are 30 entries, each unique one is repeated 5 times).


How should I fix this? Should I fix this when importing the data, or by using a UNIQUE keyword. To note when I tried to use the UNIQUE feature this time around, it gave me an error as the data that I am importing indeed has duplicates entries.
