Someone else mentioned ip-sentinel. Arpwatch is also a useful tool.

If this is on your internal network, you are best off tracing down
which devices are conflicting and figuring out if this is intentional
or some sort of bug. Someone capable of arp poisoning on your internal
network might have done a lot more than suck bandwidth -- they can
launch a number of man-in-the-middle attacks.
