Intersecting overlapping polygons individually in ArcGIS

Map Layers:

  • Census Tract ShapeFile with Population Data
  • Set of Store Locations with 5 Mile Buffers (Significant Overlap Between Buffers)

I have create feature layers for both and I am trying to intersect the population data and the buffer data. However, the overlap between the buffer polygons is leading to significant duplication/over counting, as the polygons draw from the census tract layer as well as the overlap with other polygons. Is there a way to intersect the polygons individually so that they are only drawing from the census tract data?
