You could do a few things...if your rig is wonky and you cheated a bit to fit something in there then you can just make a new duplicate mesh, transfer the UVs to that and then delete history. Then match the binds between the two objects and transfer weights. Now delete your old mesh and your new one is the correct mesh you wanted.
Alternatively you could start a geometryCaching pipeline wherein you just have a render mesh and a rig mesh and the rigged mesh just creates a geometry cache that applies to the render mesh after it's animated. In this situation you wouldn't care about history etc on the render mesh and could do any UVing you please on it. Otherwise Artonator's solution DOES work in this situation...from what I can tell. You seem to have a pretty specific situation with inherent problems that I'm not aware of so I can't fully advise since I don't have the full story. There's many other things you could do but it's not worth listing everything under the sun...
