Normal approach: Let debian/compat contain "7" and edit debian/control 
to have a tightened build-dependency on debhelper to at least version 7.

Funky CDBS approach: Copy debian/control to debian/control.in, edit 
debian/control.in to include the magic build-dependency @cdbs@, and 
invoke "DEB_MAINTAINER_MODE=1 debian/rules clean".

Then @cdbs@ gets expanded to build-dependencies resolved by CDBS, 
including the proper (unless you do something unusual requiring even 
tighter dependency) dependency on debhelper.


NB!

There's no need to quote those parts of my emails that you do not 
comment on.
