Ctrl H

Find ^p^p^p^p^p^p^p^p^p^p^p^p^p^p^p^p
Replace with: ^p
Replace all

Once it can't find any more, delete one of the ^p in the find box and Replace All.

Then continue until you can't find any replacements for ^p^p.

Or a single wildcard Find/Replace, where:
Find = [^13]{2,} (or depending on your regional settings, [^13]{2;})
Replace = ^p
