When an invoice is paid twice, a credit note should be issued to the customer making necessary references. This credit can be reimbursed to the customer via check/cash or can be used to settled any invoice issued to this customer in future.

Issue a credit note to that effect.

Ask the company to deduct the amount in next invoice, or to credit it back to your account.
