I have an account that got sold to a collection agency but still reported?

I had an old account that got sold to a collection agency. I paid the collection agency in full. That listing is on my credit report as paid but the original creditor is also on my credit report as UNPAID/DELINQUENT. Are both parties allowed to list the same debt on a credit report? If I can get rid of the original creditor my score will probably be over 725 easily.
