Spain's help was not enough to win, and the war was ended by the Treaty of Paris (1763), by which England kept Canada and the area between the Appalachians and the Mississippi River, France kept the area around New Orleans, and Spain kept Louisiana west of the Mississippi River.
In 1819, President James Monroe (Livingston's partner in negotiating the Louisiana Purchase) gave his secretary of state, John Quincy Adams, the task of negotiating with Spain to fix the elusive boundary between the Louisiana territory and the Spanish lands to the west.
Thus the Adams-Onis Treaty finally fixed the previously unidentifiable western boundary of the state of Louisiana, and established that the land comprising Vermilion Parish was indeed included in Louisiana and in the United States.

Regarding the boundary dispute, as discussed here, the treaty settled the dispute by drawing clear borders, roughly granting Florida and Louisiana to the United States while giving to Spain everything west of Louisiana from Texas to California.
