Since you're using debhelper, have a look at the -s (--same-arch) flag:

    -s, --same-arch
           This is a smarter version of the -a flag, that is used
           in some rare circumstances. It understands that if the
           control file lists "Architecture: i386" for the pack-
           age, the package should not be acted on on other
           architectures. So this flag makes the command act on
           all "Architecture: any" packages, as well as on any
           packages that have the current architecture explicitly
           specified.  Contrast to the -a flag, which makes the
           command work on all packages that are not architecture
           independant.
