To go back to your original question, if you know someone who can provide you with eggs you can ask for some that are unfertilised so the veggie problem does not arise. Even better, keep a few hens yourself so that you can guarantee their wellbeing. Milk and cheese are a different problem as a cow has to be permanently in calf in order to produce milk and the calf is often then used for veal while the parent goes through the cycle again. As the man says; you can only kill an animal once but you can torture it for a lifetime.
If you can get past the milk issue (maybe using soya milk) the chees issue is a little straightforward as rennet free cheese is widely available. I read, in fact, that most cheese is rennet free because it is so expensive, but is just not advertised as such as it's bad for business.
There is a website available that list food that you think is vegetarian but isn't. I forget the address but try google.
Good luck
